Cultivating Kanna

Succulents like Kanna are easy to maintain, both inside (in a pot) and outside. The cultivation of Kanna is comparable to the cultivation of cacti. To cultivate the plant, you first sew the seeds in some soil for cacti or succulents, gently pressing them into the soil. You then place them in a warm and bright spot. Make sure the soil doesn’t get too damp: this might cause rot. After approximately two weeks to two months, the seeds should start to sprout into seedlings.

Kanna is originally from South Africa, so it’s used to lots of light and little water. It thrives in warm places with plenty of natural light. Water the plant sparingly and use a pot with a hole in the bottom, so the water can seep through.

Kanna grows think, fleshy leaves and pretty yellow flowers when in bloom. No need to only grow Kanna for its effects: it also makes for a nice ornamental plant for your living room or balcony.
