# What's going on with my kalanchoe? Idk what's going on. Some leaves…

_Posted by Oli on 2026-08-12_

What's going on with my kalanchoe? Idk what's going on. Some leaves are yellowing and drying off, the majority looks incredibly healthy, while others, well you can see. I picked off the completely dry leaves before I took the picture. Now, this plant is very important to me as it was one of the first gifts my boyfriend (now husband) gave me about 2 years ago. I know it doesn't flower in the summer as it's too bright in the summer time in my apartment so that I'm not worried about. What's going on with my kalanchoe?

Leaves go through a life cycle, so it may just be leaves that are dying off. How often are you watering it?

I water when Planta reminds me. So every few days maybe once a week. I didn't realize the leaves had a life cycle in the sense they get old and fall off.

Mine does this too! I have had it for years and can’t figure out how to stop the leaves from dying off 😖
