    Is that Kalanchoe blossfeldiana?

      I have had troubles with these once the heat hits. Mine went nuts under grow lights, but afternoon sun scorched the flowers. I assumed they worked the way roses do in that they’re impossible to keep up with ha. Because of that thought, I fully pruned my last one, and it grew back. (I sadly can’t show it because the bugs took it).

      Here it is. It had bloomed all winter, and then started drying up (note the empty stalks).

      So beautiful! I do use a grow light, I live in a townhome and only have one side with windows (north) so I figured that wouldn’t be enough light, should I just use north facing natural light and not the grow light? Or will that be enough?
