      Nursery contributed plant descriptions

      This unusual plant is named after a spider! Can you guess why? The long, irregular “legs” of this tender succulent give us spider vibes but don’t let that scare you away! Kalanchoe katapifa ‘Tarantula’ is easy to care for and makes a great houseplant. Give it lots of light, remember not to overwater and it will give you a bouquet of bright-pink flowers. Protect your PRINCE OF PARADISE™ plant from frost!
