Kalanchoe daigremontiana

Description

Commonly known as the ‘Mother of Thousands’, fleshy green leaves of Kalanchoe daigremontiana form tiny plantlets along the margins which grow small roots and eventually fall off. This bright green variety of the ‘Mother of Thousands’ emerges with unusually chunky leaves, unlike its usually slender and patterned leaves and purple plantlets.

Full sun.

Use a cactus fertiliser 2-3 times a year between April – September.

REPOTTING

Repotting once every 2-3 years to replenish soil. Use a cactus compost with a good mix of perlite.
