Kalanchoe luciae

  • Product number: 622950
  • Origin: Madagascar
  • Latin: Kalanchoe luciae

Around the year 2000, this plant became a huge hype, and since then, cacti and succulents have once again earned their rightful place on windowsills, now mainly due to the plants' sleek shapes. The thick, round leaves form a graceful tuft and are light grey-green in color with a beautiful red discoloration along the upper edge. The more light and sun, the deeper the red color. Young leaves protect themselves with a white waxy layer... After 5 years, a plant can start to flower, and the seeds are very germinative, thus providing offspring.
