This is a much branched bushy shrub from Madagascar. A plant of miniature proportions compared to other kalanchoes. The small green leaves about 3 cm are densely covered with fine short hairs. The only problem with this plant and also many other kalanchoes is that the older leaves drops leaving a thin bare stem. Can be restarted from cuttings to maintain the bushy miniature from again.
