Kalanchoe Bells

thats just lovely Alex

I saw it on my walk and my hand just went for it.....I have it in water waiting for roots to appear.

good for you, I hope it roots for you,

Thanks. ;o)))

I had this once, but not on my life can I remember it's name :o( It was nice in a hanging pot ..

Αnd here I was ready to ask you the name. What happened to yours?

I've been looking through all my books trying to find it. I hope I do. I'm sure it was in one of them.

It died when I had a period of disinterest and didn't look after it lol

I'm trying to find it on google...
Ah disinterest...but like in one of your blogs...sometimes disinterest can save some. Obviously not this one.

That's a gem Alexandra!

Τhanks Meanie. You wouldn't happen to know the name of this gem would you?

Got me beat!
Don't think that it's Correa though, as this looks more like a succulent (unlike a Correa) and the Calyx is divided (the Correa that I have found appear to a single calyx).

Yes, you are right Meanie....had another look the only name I can find for this plant is "Red Bell Flower Succulent"

Found it!!! Kalanchoe Bells.

Does this ring any bells?

Ding dong......

Alexandramou:

This is a very common landscape plant here too. My neighbor across the street has some blooming right now also.

There's so many thousands of Kalanchoe hybrids they're difficult to I.D.

Yes they are difficult to I.D.
Pinched this off my neighbor!!!
This one was in full sun. Where is yours growing?

Alexandramou:

I don't have this plant. My neighbor has them growing along a wall in the full sun. Virtually all Kalanchoe plants are sun-loving...and really should have at least half a days full sun.

Delonix,
ok, now we have to wait for roots. I'm also waiting for a cutting of "Russelia equisetiformis ~ Fountain Bush, Coral Plant, Firecracker Plant" to root.

Alexandramou:

Russelia equisetiformis should root very easily. It does grow very large, fast. I posted some pics of some very large plants blooming about a month ago.

Just had a look. I always see them in pots here...
I don't see any roots yet and I've had it in water a few weeks now. Patience...

Ah yes ! I remember it now it has been said lol Sorry I couldn't remember. It was about 25 yrs ago when I had mine

Don't worry Hywel. I couldn't remember I saw a similar one Delonix posted last week.

What a bright pair we are lol

LOL......

Alexandramou:

Yes, Russelia equisetiformis will take more than 2 weeks to root...especially in winter. lol! :>)
