Kalanchoe

The unknown houseplant that Amy rescued is a Kalanchoe:
prized for its attractive succulent foliage and long lasting, brilliant blooms from winter to spring.

Care — prefers well drained soil and cool temps. Allow to dry between thorough waterings. For best results remove old flower stalks, pinch foliage freely to retain bushy shape and fertilize regularly during flowering. Protect from frost.

  1. We have kalanchoes here...is that an enlarged photo of the flowers? That's probably why I didn't recognise it...because the flowers are really quite small, aren't they?
