# I think I almost killed my kalanchoe hanging basket by keeping it in…

_Posted by Peachy Keen on 2026-06-16_

I think I almost killed my kalanchoe hanging basket by keeping it in direct sunlight and not watering it enough. I was trying to identify it but it has small prickly hairs on the stem and I couldn't find what type of kalanchoe had that and these flowers.

I trimmed some of the really dead brown and gray parts. There are one or two stems blooming in the back, but what should I do about all the ones dropping around the basket?
