This is my Kalanchoe plant. It is again getting very too heavy which is why the wooden dowels are there. Is this a plant that I will need to continually cut down? I’m assuming that it would continue growing taller and taller if I didn’t?

As far as I know, it will just keep growing lol. If you trim it, it will sprout new branching growth at the top.

That’s what I figured. I’ve trimmed it once and planted those cuttings in this same pot but on the outside edges in hopes to fill it out more. That worked and then some. I think this plant is on steroids!!
