Just found the name of a plant I recv'd 10 years ago. "Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana". Just bloomed 1st time. Why so long
Kalanchoe blossfeldiana - Flaming Katy [pink]
Received in California. Within a year moved to Indiana? Seemed healthy & enjoyed north light exposure. Growing larger & with many cuttings develop roots. Repotted back into same pot with new soil, but have never fertilized. Had no idea it was a blooming plant. Blooms last for weeks and more keep developing. Same north exposure. Why take so long?

It's tough to say what change in its environmental conditions prompted it to start flowering, but even without fertilizer, soil contains nutrients like Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium. It's possible that's what spurred it to flower.
