Help?

Bryophyllum daigremontianum (a.k.a. Kalanchoe daigremontiana)

If you believe in God, this plant is one of his practical jokes!

Are you sure you want to get another one? The plant is a serious pest with plantlets coming up everywhere. Don't be a sucker and get one on eBay because you can easily get it for free. People who have it would probably gladly give one or more plants to you just to get rid of them.

"Mexican hat" is an awful misnomer for the plant because it actually originates from Madagascar.

Maybe someone on this UBC Botanical Garden thread can help you out with a plantlet.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

You mean Bryophyllum delagoense (formerly called Kalanchoe delagoensis, Kalanchoe tubiflora, Bryophyllum tubiflorum).

There is nothing hat-like about the cylindrical leaves of the plant.

You think wrong. Many but not all of the Bryophyllum are viviparous. Kalanchoe are not.

Thanks, that's not it either. The leaves are oval a little bigger than a quarter and very smooth.

Hi, I Have read you message post. The name of the species which has th

common name 'Mexican Hat Plant is kalanchoe daigremontiana. If yo would like to find suppliers of succulent plants a visit to the Cactu and Succulent Plant Mall. I am afraid I cannot remember the url for th web site.

Kind Regards,

If you can't help, why bother resurrecting this long dead topic? That's just plain pointless.

this company states they will provide any plant you want within 4 hours .... give them a try see what you think
