Kalanchoe
The Kalanchoe comes in around 125 different varieties and is native to the Old World with very few of its new species growing in the New World. Most of these flowers are shrubs or perennials. However, due to hybridization, some of these flowers are annual or biennial. Most of the flowers are less than 1 meter tall with the exception of the Beharensis, which is native to the country of Madagascar, can reach up to an astonishing 6 meters tall! These flowers are very popular as ornamental flowers and are great for garden flowers. This type of flower has been used in many medicinal effects which include a strong aid against tumors.Kingdom: Plantae Subkingdom: Tracheobionta Superdivision: Spermatophyta Division: Magnoliophyta Class: Magnoliopsida Subclass: Rosidae Order: Rosales Family: Crassulaceae Genus: Kalanchoe Adans.
