    Tender. Gray-green overlapping leaves.Red Stalks.

    By: Little Prince of Oregon

    The soft blue-green neatly folded leaves are edged in purplish red when grown in sun and are topped by little hanging clusters of intense red-orange tubular flowers in late winter and spring. Marnier's Kalanchoe is shrub-like with a naturally upright to spreading habit eventually creating a dense full plant that is well suited to containers. Its drought and shade tolerance make this a great choice as a specimen plant in containers or even in the ground where hardy.
