A compact succulent shrublet reaching only 12 inches tall and wide, Kalanchoe millotii features a mass of oval leaves with sharply scalloped edges which, together with the plant’s furry texture and mint green coloration, creates a soft look sure to add a delicate touch to any home or garden.

Native to Madagascar, Kalanchoe millotii prefers bright and warm conditions, and will even blush to a rosy pink when amply ‘stressed’ by its light levels! Take care, however, when acclimating this variety to the harsh afternoon sunlight of southern or western-facing exposures, to avoid burning the tips of the fuzzy leaves. The remainder of this variety’s care requirements are straightforward – porous soil within a well-draining pot and ample airflow around the leaves and soil surface will help protect against rot, as will a thorough but infrequent watering routine. While Kalanchoe millotii prefers temperatures above 55 degrees, it absolutely cannot withstand freezing temperatures, so prepare accordingly if you live in a climate below Zone 10!

During the summer months, clusters of yellowish blooms will emerge above the leaves, adding yet another textural element to complement Haworthia millotii’s charming aesthetic.
