| Positive | GranvilleSouth | On Feb 21, 2008, GranvilleSouth from (Zone 10a) wrote: Not your typical succulent but it grows on you with its little spots & fuzzy leaves. I have never seen one flower or ever found a picture of one flowering, despite a fair bit of looking. There is a mystery to this plant in that way for me. | | Positive | meryl1cat | On Oct 14, 2007, meryl1cat from Chippenham United Kingdom wrote:Just discovered this plant in a charity sale, new to me but should survive well as I forget to water all houseplants. | | Positive | palmbob | On Aug 29, 2004, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote: there are many cultivars of this species available at common nurseries, so if your plant doesn't look exactly like the ones in the photos here, don't be alarmed.. probably still a K tomentosa. Some have huge leaves, some dinky, some skinny, some white, some dark etc. | | Positive | greenlarry | On Jul 27, 2004, greenlarry from Darlington United Kingdom wrote:A very attractive if slow growing plant. One to keep! | | Positive | dieter67 | On Oct 6, 2003, dieter67 from Henderson, NV (Zone 10a) wrote: UPDATE! I just moved my beloved kalanchoe tomentosa into a pot twice the size, and it's moving right in. We've had cooler weather lately, and growing is sort of slow.
When I prune my Kalanchoe tomentosa, I place it in another pot, which I give away to family or friends. I know this plant does well in Lancaster, CA, as I gave a cutting to my 89 year-old grandmother. The plant survived 112°F temperatures, and was placed in a covered patio when the winter temperatures regularly fell into the 10°-20°F range. Have fun! | | Neutral | tiredwabbit | On Aug 21, 2001, tiredwabbit from Point Pleasant Beach, NJ (Zone 7a) wrote: Tips of this plant get a brown (almost rusty color) on the edges. It has a furry texture. |
