Description

Kalanchoe orgyalis is an evergreen plant which has attractive succulent, spoon-shaped, rusty-copper leaves held opposite each other on the stems. The leaves' coloration is due to small felt-like hairs which cover the leaves' upper surfaces. Over time they fade to match the silvery-gray color of the hairs on the leaves' undersides. Kalanchoe orgyalis is a moderately slow-growing plant, and over time will form an nicely branched small shrub. In spring and summer, Kalanchoe orgyalis blooms on panicles with bright yellow-green flowers.
