Kalanchoe 'Ladies Fingers'
Unusual cultivar of the ever-popular 'Flap Jacks' with tight recurved leaves rather than the normal paddles. Lady Fingers will tolerate most soil types with good drainage and will survive periods without water.
Plants should be covered with a cloth if severe frost predicted to prevent frost burn. Plants will form large dense clusters of multiple plants 20 to 30cm across. As this is a mutation it will probably not flower.
Position - full sun or partial shade. Great in gardens, borders, rockeries, pots and hanging baskets. Indoors only in sunny positions otherwise they will lose their nice shape and colour.
Watering - can be watered all year round and grow fastest in the warmer months. Plants will survive without water for very long periods.
Feeding - 25% of recommended dosage monthly in growing period. The less fertiliser, the better the shape of the plant.
Fertilisers high in nitrogen can produce larger plants with less colour.
Repotting - can be left to overgrow their pots or repotted in the warmer months in almost any well drained potting mix.
