About Kalanchoe luciae
Kalanchoe luciae is a succulent of the Crassulaceae family, native to Madagascar and southern Africa. It is characterized by varied succulent leaves (smooth, lobed, hairy), an evolutionary adaptation that makes it a unique piece in the world of succulents.
We grow Kalanchoe luciae at Succulentae, in the heart of the Almería desert, where the dry Mediterranean climate replicates the ideal conditions for the plant to develop its compact form and best coloration. This produces stronger specimens, with intense coloration and compact form, ready to join your collection.
