Kalanchoe Tomentosa Chocolate

Kalanchoe tomentosa 'Chocolate' is a captivating succulent known for its plush, velvety leaves edged with deep chocolate-brown markings. Native to Madagascar, this variety of the classic Panda Plant is a charming addition to any indoor collection, offering texture and subtle color variation that stands out among other succulents.

Its fuzzy, silvery-green foliage is covered in fine hairs that give it a soft, almost felt-like appearance. The contrasting chocolate edges add warmth and depth, making it a unique specimen that complements minimalist and rustic décor styles alike.

Key Characteristics:

• Velvety, silvery-green leaves with dark chocolate margins

• Upright, shrubby growth habit

• Compact size, ideal for windowsills, desks, and small planters

• Drought-tolerant and low maintenance

Care Tips:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to full sun. A sunny windowsill is ideal.

• Humidity: Enjoys dry air; avoid high humidity environments.

• Fertilizer: Feed sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted succulent fertilizer.
