Help me identify this plant 🌱 I received this in a box of succulent cuttings today. #succulent-id #succulove #succulents #succulent-addict
I think it's Devil's Backbone. Watch for pups on the leaf edges!
#devils-backone or as we call them in Ireland #crocodile-plant so cool as they carry their young on the plants
@angiie You seem to know them very well. Just a question: how do you differ between K. houghtonii and K. daigremontiana? As there are so many misidentifications on the internet, I wasn't able to find that out yet 🙈😅
My horticulture teacher called it mother of millions/mother of thousands (Kalanchoe daigremontiana) If it's the plant I think it is, it'll grow small leaves which reproduce like crazy, so keep it away from your other plants if you don't want it spreading to your other pots/plants. Indoors, it doesn't flower.
Since it's been 4 weeks, not sure if it's too late for a response 😬
@sarahkbartley hey, thanks!
No problem!
Guys! My #kalanchoe-houghtonii has a little baby! Now what? #kalanchoe-baby #prop-it or not? #succulove #succulentsunday #succulentadvice
OMG - once I had one, and then it became two, three, five, ten... 😱 I had to get rid of it!
@inuit that’s what I fear! This isn’t a plant I purchased. I received it as a bonus in a box of cuttings 😜
