Flower Dust Plant
Kalanchoe pumila
Low shrubby succulent with sprawling stems to 18″. The real interest is in the dusted scalloped leaves – purple under a white dusting. Will make a great hanging basket. And then there are these pretty purple flowers, small but profuse. Did I say purple? I meant pink. Wait, no, that’s more like a puce, or maybe a lavender. Magenta? Cerise?
Hardy to 28F is generally good enough for Berkeley.
