Re: Kalanchoe delagoensis x daigremontiana Pink Butterflies
This version of 'mother of thousands' is a very popular cultivar with an amazing amount of pink in it. The 'regular' hybrid form of these two incredibly prolific Kalanchoes (both species that make this one up have the moniker 'mother of thousands' for a very good reason... they produce literally thousands of babies easily and all over the place). This form of plant, however, is much less dangerous with rooting of the little pink plantlets not quite as straightforward... though reports of these pink plantets being sterile or unrootable have been proven NOT to be the case. However, for whatever reason, they do not seem to end up all over the place in the garden or greenhouse like the individual parent plants do.
