    Insufficient light, it’s etiolated.

      Oh! I didn’t know this plant did that! It’s been in a sunny window tho😭Is it just the less strong winter sun maybe?

      For sure, it IS a succulent although I think this plant doesn’t require as much light as some, I’d say a grow light would help it pull through. And remember etiolation isn’t a death sentence it just changes how it looks. If it falls or breaks I’d just trim and prop it

    I had a huge etiolated calandiva. Bottom leaves will yellow/shrivel as the plant grows, you can just pinch them off. Once it got too tall to support itself, I clipped the healthiest top and potted it. It took root in a few months and is growing new leaves now; and this time I have it under a grow light.

      This is the plant prior to clipping. It started as one or two stems and ended up with like five, constantly growing new shoots
