Kalanchoe or Crassula or...

Post by spacekat »

I picked this plant up today. Bought it for the unique leaves but I'm really not sure what it is.

Ooh, that is cool. I think it's a Kalanchoe hybrid "Elk Antlers," but I can can see why you also suggested Crassula (the little spoon-like leaves look like it).

I looked around some more and found Kalanchoe x Spider which I think might be it. :-)

Me too, but this one is different.
The leaves are 'wilder' and the flowers are filled (don't know the english word for that)
