About Kalanchoe humilis
Kalanchoe humilis is one of the most distinctive succulents in the Crassulaceae family. Its origin is in Madagascar and southern Africa. It stands out for varied succulent leaves (smooth, lobed, hairy), a peculiarity that has fascinated botanists and enthusiasts for generations.
At Succulentae we produce Kalanchoe humilis with artisanal technique in southeastern Spain, following a cultivation protocol that replicates the sun, dryness and mineral conditions of its native habitat. This produces stronger specimens, with intense coloration and compact form, ready to join your collection.
