Why does your Kalanchoe daigremontiana have drooping leaves? Diagnose the cause and fix it with our step-by-step guide.
As a succulent, Kalanchoe daigremontiana stores water in its fleshy leaves; excessive soil moisture causes roots to suffocate and decay, leading to systemic wilting.
When the soil dries out completely for extended periods, the plant loses turgor pressure in its thick leaves, causing them to go limp and sag.
This species is sensitive to low temperatures; exposure to drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C) can cause metabolic slowdown and leaf drooping.
A lack of essential minerals like Nitrogen can weaken the structural integrity of the plant's large leaves, leading to a loss of upright posture.
