Product Details

Highlights

Chandelier Plant (Kalanchoe delagoensis or K. tubiflora): A Bryophyllum type Kalanchoe known as Mother of Millions (because it is aggressively prolific) or Chandelier Plant (because of its upright, cylindrical leaves).

This species is native to Madagascar and Mozambique, where it grows as dense stands in a wide range of habitats. Its tubular, grey-green leaves are marked with dark purple blotches. Hundreds of tiny plantlets sprout along its leaves, fall, and take root almost anywhere. It so aggressively chokes out other plants that it has been classified as an invasive weed in Australia.

In addition to vegetative propagation, K. delagoensis can bloom each winter and produce seeds. It has a hanging, trumpet-shaped flower that can be red to orange.

Please Note: All parts of this plant are toxic and can cause digestive issues if ingested.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need great drainage and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
