Kalanchoe brasiliensis, PINNATA, is a succulent perennial plant that grows 3-5 feet tall. Commonly known as 'air plant,' it has tall hollow stems, fleshy dark green leaves that are distinctively scalloped and trimmed in red, and bell-like pendulous flowers. Kalanchoe is botanically classified with two main Latin names which refer to the same plant: Bryophyllum pinnatum and Kalanchoe pinnatum (as well as various synonyms of both).
We grow and propagate our plants organically w/o the use of chemicals or pesticides. Our plants are NOT genetically modified.
This is the only Kalanchoe species found in South America, however, 200 other species of Kalanchoe are found in Africa, Madagascar, China and Java.
In Brazil the plant goes by the common names of sai£o or coirama and in Peru it is called hoja del aire (air plant) or kalanchoe. Leaves and leaf juice are used throughout South America and the Caribbean for its medicinal properties.
