Panda plant!

Sometimes they drop over when they get too heavy, but that shouldn’t be the case for yours. I’d recommend propping it up on something

It’s not getting enough sun so it is etiolated.

See below picture for healthy growth

Yours are so pretty!

Been trying to figure out how to message you. Your cacti are beautiful. Interested in trading some babies? I’m in MA.

Do you think getting sun will help it now or do you think I need to try and propagate it ?

#### Plantmami antwortete am 2023-11-10

You can see here where it’s started to bend poor guy 🥺

along with needing more light (looks like the greenhouse kept it in shade unfortunately), it likely needs to be repotted into a pot with better drainage, i would also trim it right where it bent. these plants are hardy and will propagate themselves. a piece of a leaf broke off mine and fell behind a shelf, found it a few months later with long scraggly roots about two inches long

Thank you, and yes the nursery did have it in shade unfortunately, I took your advice and propagated it, ran out of soil but will add more once I get some hopefully this works!

looks good. your kalanchoe will probably look 10x better in a month or two, good luck!
