Kalanchoe offer broad or scalloped leaves, smooth or velvety surfaces and distinctive patterns, bringing varied forms and textures to a collection.
Kalanchoe offer a wide range of foliage: broad or scalloped leaves, smooth or hairy surfaces and patterns that vary between species. Some stand out for their sculptural form; others for coloured margins, spots or the soft texture of their leaves.
The genus includes plants of very different sizes and habits, so consider the available space and each variety's features. Flowers can add interest too, but many species are grown mainly for their foliage. Their shapes and textures stand out in a simple pot.
