The thick, fleshy structure of kalanchoe leaves allows the plant to retain water for long periods. This adaptation helps it endure dry indoor air and infrequent watering routines without wilting.
Do kalanchoe plants grow outdoors or indoors?
In mild climates without frost, kalanchoes can grow outside in rock gardens or patio containers. In cooler regions, they are commonly grown indoors near sunny windows where temperature levels stay warm year-round.
