Kalanchoe millotii (Hamet & Perrier): A velvety species with scalloped leaves thickly covered with silvery green felt. This Madagascar native branches freely and can rapidly grow into a dwarf shrub under appropriate conditions. It is a robust plant, even indoors, with distinctive foliage, but it also produces clusters of small, whitish flowers.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.

It's also important to note that cuttings tend to need more frequent water than fully rooted succulents. The extra water encourages the cutting to form roots so that it can then focus on foliar growth.
Take a look at the cut end of the cutting. Is it forming roots? Do they look healthy and white or slimy and dark? Check the soil. Are there grubs in the soil that could be eating at the tender roots as they form? Fungus gnat larva are notorious for this.
In short, water until the water drains out the drainage holes, and then wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again.

If it's not stretching, then making a stem cutting will encourage the plant to branch and become bushier.

The plants contain poisons that effect the heart of living things. Symptoms of Kalanchoe poisoning include an irregular or quickened heartbeat, excessive salivation, and abdominal pain. If you believe your pet has consumed Kalanchoe plant material, the best course of action would be to take them to a vet immediately along with a sample of the plant in question.
If you believe a loved one has consumed Kalanchoe plant material, it would be wise to call poison control at (800) 222-1222.

Succulents need grittier soil than other plants because they are adapted to dry conditions and store water in their leaves. Regular potting soil mixes stay damp for long periods of time, which can cause rot in succulents. Instead, use a sandy, well-draining soil so you can water thoroughly without leaving your succulent in standing water.
IN POTS…
See full answer »Our plants can be transplanted immediately upon arrival.
If you want to wait to transplant, they can remain in their original containers for up to a month. If the pots came in a plastic carrier tray, remove the pots from the carrier tray prior to the first watering.
Keep the plants indoors near a sunny window or outdoors under a roof (only if outdoor temperatures stay above your succulent's minimum hardiness temperature). Water only after the soil is fully dry by drenching from above with a faucet, hose, or watering can. Gently shake excess water from the leaves and allow containers to drain completely.
