RE: My Tiny Garden - Kalanchoe blossfeldiana

Beautiful! I had one and he did not survive ... Then I bought again - and again did not survive ... Now the same do not buy - it means it's not meant to be!
Gave me a baby of a different kind of Kalanchoe. It grows great! He even gave me 2 scion! I attach the photo (the photo is not mine), but I have exactly the same. It is called: kalanchoe luciae

Yes I have this one too. It is a lot bigger than Blossfeldiana. Mine didn't bloom yet, but I know that after it blooms it will die.

Oh! I do not know ... It's a pity, but at what age does it blossom? So we must leave the shoots. And I was going to give them away. Now I will give 1, and 1 I will leave it to myself.
P.S. I was wrong ... My Kalanchoe is called: kalanchoe luciae. Blossfeldiana is the flower that you have. Now I understand why my people died after flowering ...
P.S. Now I have found an article where they write that Kalanchoe luciae often dies after flowering ... :-(

Yes it does. But normally it grows little shoots around before it blooms, so you keep them :)
The mother plant dies, but they babies grow. My one has some little ones already. I don't know how old it has to be to bloom. It is not very big yet.

Kalanchoe luciae blooms at the age of 2-3 years.

Still some time then... Maybe next year.

Okay!
