  •   Kalanchoe beharensis 'Fang' is a rare architectural succulent native to the highlands of Madagascar, where it grows in rocky, arid terrain. It is one of the most distinctive Kalanchoe cultivars for collectors seeking genuine rarity and character.

      Fang earns its name from the fang-like, tubercle-tipped projections that cover the undersides of its large, arrowhead-shaped leaves. The foliage is densely covered in velvety felt in silver-green to bronze tones, creating a texture unlike almost anything else in the plant world. It develops thick, heavily textured leaves with an upright, sculptural growth habit.

      Fang is grown primarily as a foliage plant, with the extraordinary leaf texture and form holding attention year-round. Flower information for this cultivar in typical indoor conditions is limited, so the dramatic, felt-covered leaves are the focus. This slow-growing succulent delivers steady, long-lasting presence rather than rapid seasonal changes.

      Rotate Fang regularly for even growth, and keep it away from air conditioning vents and heating drafts. Move it outside in summer to a bright, sheltered spot, but provide cover from rain to protect those velvety leaves from water damage. Cats and dogs should not be left to nibble or eat the plant, so a high shelf suits it well while also displaying its upright form. With minimal fuss, it grows well for years as a focal point for collectors and houseplant enthusiasts alike.

  •   Kalanchoe beharensis 'Fang' grows well in bright indirect light and scorches easily in direct south-facing windows.

      Water it every 2-3 weeks, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings; it wilts visibly when thirsty.

      Fang does best in a fast-draining cactus and perlite mix that prevents moisture from sitting around the roots.

      It prefers temperatures between 60-85°F and should never be exposed to frost or freezing conditions.

      Fang is a slow-growing succulent that benefits from a light balanced fertilizer once monthly during spring and summer.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9-11, tolerating temperatures down to around 25-30°F only briefly and faring best with frost-free winters. It grows outdoors year-round in California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Hawaii, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Nevada. It also suits protected microclimates along the Oregon coast and in parts of New Mexico and Arkansas where winters stay mild.
  • Q: How often should I water Kalanchoe beharensis 'Fang'?
    A: Every 2-3 weeks once the soil has dried completely. The leaves will wilt slightly when depleted.

    Q: Is this succulent safe around pets?
    A: No. Kalanchoe beharensis 'Fang' is toxic to cats and dogs, so keep it on a high shelf well out of reach of pets and small children.

    Q: How fast does Fang grow?
    A: Very slowly. Expect gradual, steady progress rather than rapid size gains over its lifetime.

    Q: What window placement works best indoors?
    A: Fang grows well in bright indirect light near an east or west-facing window, and even does well under strong office LEDs. Avoid south-facing glass where intense direct sun will scorch the felt-covered leaves.

    Q: Can Fang survive outdoors in summer?
    A: Yes. Move it to a bright, sheltered spot for the season, but provide cover from rain since water sitting on those velvety leaves causes damage.

    Q: How do I propagate this succulent?
    A: Fang can be propagated from stem cuttings or leaf cuttings left to callous for a few days before placing in dry, well-draining soil. Allow time for roots to establish given its slow growth rate.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
