Kalanchoe spp. White

Common Name:
Kalanchoe

Description:
Kalanchoe is a resilient, drought-tolerant succulent known for its fleshy green leaves and clusters of long-lasting white flowers. It is a favourite for both indoor and outdoor gardens due to its low-maintenance nature and ability to brighten spaces during the cooler months. This plant thrives in well-draining soil and requires minimal watering, making it ideal for busy gardeners. It prefers warm temperatures and should be protected from frost, making it well-suited to Melbourne’s indoor conditions or sheltered outdoor areas. Kalanchoe flowers primarily in autumn and winter, providing a striking contrast against its rich green foliage. Regular deadheading encourages prolonged blooming, and it is easily propagated from cuttings.
