Small plantlets often appear on the margins of the saw-toothed leaves. These plantlets can be potted up when they fall off or they can be left in the pot until they take hold on their own.
Kalanchoe orgyalis is a slow growing plant that has oval, bronze-haired leaves two to two and a half inches long that turn grey as they grow older.
Kalanchoe tomentosa (panda plant, pussy ears) is a succulent plant with erect, branching stems and fleshy, almond-shaped leaves. The leaves are covered with white furry felt and are marked with brown on the tips.
