Copper Spoons

Copper Spoons (Kalanchoe orgyalis) (Baker): Stemmed variety with velvety, spoon-shaped leaves that stand upright. This two-toned plant is a lovely cinnamon brown on the upper side of its leaves and silver underneath. As leaves age, they turn completely silver. In its native, rocky habitat in Madagascar, Copper Spoons can develop into a 6.0′ tall, freely branching shrub, but this slow-growing species will stay smaller indoors in a pot. In late winter to spring it can produce clusters of sunny yellow blossoms.
