Kalanchoe is not blooming
#Kalanchoe is not blooming. It was blooming when I bought it. I changed the pot to a bigger one and it stopped blooming. Why did it stop?

I’m attaching this picture to show what my kalanchoe looks likes like after pruning leggy growth in the winter, then new growth filling out. I was lucky that it has had lots after flowers this summer after getting it last summer and going all winter with no flowers. Now it is probably needing to be pruned back again. But I was just letting the flowers do their thing.
I believe kalanchoes are summer dormant, mine all bloomed in the beginning of spring so you may not get a bloom till next year.. I also don’t think yours would mind a little more sun, it looks like they are reaching for it & that would help them not be too leggy, the sun will also help them bloom, & with exposure they get red edges on the leaves. They also are so easy to propagate so if you feel yours is getting leggy you can make multiples out of what you have. I just chopped mine & it’s pushing babies out of the nodes 🤗 second pic is where I cut him & the 3rd pic is the top that I got to root in a couple weeks!
@nellz4estfairyz when I deadheaded just the flower stalks mine went nuts with new leaves out of the nodes! All the energy from the flower went into making that bad boy bush up! Yours is very beautiful 😊
@AvidStjohnswort These seem to be very particular to me. They grow great in nursery/greenhouse conditions with very bright, but indirect light and some humidity + airflow. You get them home and try hard but they go to 💩. I've nixed them from my easy care list because I have a dark house...not the right conditions.
Could be a shock from change of conditions. Be sure to research it to ensure it's in optimal conditions. Also, plants don't bloom forever and it's possible it's just done for the season
