If the plant is Kalanchoe pinnata, small plantlets can develop along the edges of mature leaves. These plantlets may establish when they detach and contact a suitable growing medium. Use a well-drained succulent mix and provide bright, appropriate light. This propagation method differs from growing the plant from true seeds.
Yes, Kalanchoe pinnata can be grown in a container indoors where it receives bright light and has adequate drainage. Use a suitable succulent potting mix and avoid frequent watering when the soil is still wet. Protect the plant from cold temperatures and excessive direct sun when moving it between growing environments.
