As Kalanchoe Pumila matures, it can reach a height of 30cm or 12-inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flower Dust Plant is a member of the Crassulaceae family and is native to Madagascar. A popular choice among succulent hobbyists, Kalanchoe Pumila has received the Royal Horticultural Society\u2019s Award of Garden Merit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_46 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\"><\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"ez-toc-toggle-icon-1\"><label for=\"item-69f1e45a1f163\" aria-label=\"Table of Content\"><span style=\"display: flex;align-items: center;width: 35px;height: 30px;justify-content: center;direction:ltr;\"><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/label><input  type=\"checkbox\" id=\"item-69f1e45a1f163\"><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/kalanchoe-pumila\/#general-information\" title=\"General Information:\">General Information:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/kalanchoe-pumila\/#how-to-grow-and-care-for-kalanchoe-pumila\" title=\"How to Grow and Care for Kalanchoe Pumila\">How to Grow and Care for Kalanchoe Pumila<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/kalanchoe-pumila\/#how-to-propagate-kalanchoe-pumila\" title=\"How to Propagate Kalanchoe Pumila\">How to Propagate Kalanchoe Pumila<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/kalanchoe-pumila\/#frequently-asked-questions\" title=\"Frequently Asked Questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"general-information\"><\/span>General Information:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also known as: <\/strong>Flower Dust Plant<br><strong>Plant Family:<\/strong> Crassulaceae<br><strong>Origin: <\/strong>Madagascar<br><strong>Height:<\/strong> 30cm (12-inches)<br><strong>Exposure:<\/strong> Full to partial sun<br><strong>Water Needs:<\/strong> Water only when soil is dry to the touch; less watering during the cold months<br><strong>Soil Type:<\/strong> Standard potting soil mix with the addition of pumice, compost, perlite, and sand.<br><strong>Soil pH:<\/strong> 5.6 to 6.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-grow-and-care-for-kalanchoe-pumila\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-grow-and-care-for-kalanchoe-pumila\"><\/span><strong>How to Grow and Care for Kalanchoe Pumila<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-flower.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-flower.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-flower-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-flower-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-flower-585x293.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Kalanchoe Pumila is not a cold-hardy plant. This succulent subshrub prefers climates with temperatures of -6.7 \u00b0C (20 F).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you live in regions with lower temperatures, it would be recommended to grow Flower Dust Plant in a pot that can be transferred indoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>You can grow Kalanchoe Pumila as a hanging succulent or as a colorful accent to a rock garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sunlight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Flower Dust Plant is a type of succulent that grows better under strong light. As an outdoor succulent plant, place Kalanchoe Pumila in an area in the garden that receives 6 hours of sunlight every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When moving Kalanchoe Pumila indoors, position the pot in an area where the succulent plant can receive 6 hours or partial to full sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Kalanchoe Pumila has similar watering needs as other succulent plants. It\u2019s important to remember that overwatering is not good for this type of plant. We recommend the soak and dry method as the best way to water Flower Dust Plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check the moisture level of the soil before watering. You can insert a stick half an inch into the topsoil. If the end of the stick is dry to the touch then you can water the soil until it\u2019s drenched. Wait for the soil to completely dry out before watering it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watering will be less frequent during the colder months because the soil will remain moist longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pot and Soil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ceramic and terra cotta are the best materials for pots because they are breathable and allow for the proper evaporation of moisture from the soil. Make sure that the pot has a drain hole to let excess water come out of the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kalanchoe Pumila will grow best in a pot filled with a well-draining mix of soil such as a standard potting mix combined with pumice, compost, sand, and perlite. The level of drainage will improve by adding these ingredients to the soil mix. These ingredients will also prevent soil compaction. The ideal pH level for the soil is from 5.6 to 6.5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-propagate-kalanchoe-pumila\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-propagate-kalanchoe-pumila\"><\/span><strong>How to Propagate Kalanchoe Pumila<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-succulent.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-succulent.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Kalanchoe-Pumila-succulent-180x300.png 180w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Kalanchoe Pumila is popular with horticulturists because you can propagate it from stems or leaf cuttings.

If a part of the leaf remains on the stem, you won\u2019t be assured of successful propagation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3: Allow the leaf to develop hard calluses all over by laying it in a dry area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 4: When the leaf has developed calluses, place it on well-draining soil and allow the cuttings to grow roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 5: Before watering, check the moisture level of the soil. If the topsoil is dry to the touch, lightly mist it with water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-3-repotting\"><strong>Method 3 \u2013 Repotting<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Repotting Flower Dust Plant will reinvigorate the succulent and give it new growth. Kalanchoe Pumila can be repotted every 2 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Succulents are often planted in plastic pots that have no drainage. Repot Kalanchoe Pumila once you get home by transferring it to a ceramic or terra cotta pot that has a drain hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gently remove the plant from the pot and shake off excess bits of soil. Let it dry in an area. Replace the pot with well-draining soil before transferring Kalanchoe Pumila.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"frequently-asked-questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1585596286968\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><br\/><strong>Is Kalanchoe Pumila Toxic for Cats and Dogs?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\"><br\/>The website of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) makes no mention of Kalanchoe Pumila as a succulent that\u2019s toxic for cats and dogs.<br\/><br\/><\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1585596301775\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><br\/><strong>Why is my Kalanchoe Pumila Dying?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\"><br\/>Your Senecio serpens succulent could be dying because of 3 possible reasons: Overwatering, etiolation, and pest infestation.<br\/><br\/>There are 3 possible reasons why your Kalanchoe Pumila is dying: Overwatering, not enough sunlight, and pest infestation.<br\/><br\/><strong>Overwatering<\/strong><br\/><br\/>When it comes to Kalanchoe Pumila, underwatering is better than overwatering.
