The plant prefers temperatures between 50-70°F. If exposed to temperatures below 30°F or above 95°F, it will go dormant and require a break from watering. Avoid exposing Kalanchoe Eriophylla to extreme conditions, as they can negatively impact its growth and health.

Soil/Watering: Kalanchoe Eriophylla can be grown in a soil mix consisting of cinder blocks, peat, vermiculite, and perlite. The ratio should be around 4:3:1:1 respectively. During the growing season, from fall through winter, moderate watering will be required. However, it will be dormant during the hottest summer and winter months and require less watering.

Pot: A pot with drainage will keep the plant drained, and a deeper pot will help it root.

Propagation: Kalanchoe Eriophylla can be propagated through cuttings. You must take healthy, old branches and place them in dry, sandy soil to do this. However, it is essential to note that Kalanchoe Eriophylla cuttings root very slowly. The roots usually grow in a shady area for 15 to 30 days.
