# Hi everyone! I received a cutting of kalanchoe a while back and now…

_Posted by PlantNewbie12 on 2026-02-15_

Hi everyone! I received a cutting of kalanchoe a while back and now its flowering! I’ve just been watering it from time to time until now, but are there best practices for taking care of it while its blooming? Also how long will it take to bloom? Im new to this plant so any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks! Do you have any advice for helping it bloom?

So mine just did the same thing and it bloomed from every little possible place, but see how you have that space between leaves. It needs more light and mine is even worse and I would think I was giving it enough light but apparently no.

Yeah it was odd that they seemed to be close together then all of a sudden etiolated when it bloomed
