ID Help :-
nice- regular kalanchoe v bryophyllum and kalanchoe are synonyms It is Bryophyllum Thank you very much for details of this plant. I found it at Kamarkundu Railway Garden.According to F. B. I. and Bengal Plants :- Calyx shortly 4-fid ——– Bryophyllum
Calyx deeply 4-partite —— Kalanchoe
I know you like FBI and Bengal plants. so I dont want to create controversy. basically nice books but remember they are very old. This Kalenchoe is growing even in my house which does not get sun for four winter months. Thank you very much, i agree+understand all your points.
Following are links to differentiate Kalanchoe and Bryophyllum :-
However, i read Bengal Plants, because it is easier, with simple key-habit-distribution than those eFlora(s). yes the pendulous flowers is a sure way to differentiate Why not the sepals? –

requesting to Id is ornamental plant at Pune Kindly check for Kalanchoe blossfeldiana of Crassulaceae.
Commonly known as Flaming Katy. Thank you for the Id. yes it is Kalanchoe dwarf Kalanchoe blossfeldiana has flowers with four petals only.
this is a cultivar with double flowers or almost multiple layers of petals. reminiscent of minaiture roses. nursery trade forces these massive flowering to make them attractive. comes in many colored flowers including even a yucky green flower (see this utube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtK7Ad_HKNU). there is a cultivar called CALANDIVA series popular in houseplant shops selling with these massive flowers at top lasting a few weeks once you bring them home… then just leaves if you are lucky to over summer them…. getting leggy uninteresting and almost no flowers in the indian urban setting. second flowering is difficult unless you know exactly how and have excperimented a lot. I should know i aghve brought lot of these home for late fall and early winter to cheer up the dreary winter blahs. bottom line this is Kalanchoe blossfeldiana CALANDIVA (registered) series. oh i forgot to say…. dwarf kalanchoe still has four petaled flowers.
this case … you are showing is not the plant that is known in the trade as dwarf kalanchoe Thank you so much for the correct Id and the link.

Check with Kalanchoe blossfeldiana,
One more photo.
The leaves of the said plant look quite similar to the images displayed when searched with the name you suggested on Google, but the inflorescence is quite different. I am guessing that this is a cultivated plant, and hence, the differences could be because of different cultivars.
It will be useful to receive other experts’ thoughts on this plant.
I agree with the id provided by …
Match quite well with images at Kalanchoe blossfeldiana
Thank you for the confirmation, and for sending the species page.
Yes, the photos on the species page match with the plant I have.
