This listing features our beautiful rooted Kalanchoe Chocolate Soldier or Kalanchoe Tomentosa. 'Chocolate Soldier' is very drought tolerant when established. The velvety leaves are covered with soft tiny hairs that act as a natural shield from hot sunlight. The tips of the yellow/grey-green leaves have slightly raised tooths with rusty brown spots. Kalanchoe Chocolate Soldier has thick stems which become woody with age.

It produces small, bell-shaped and yellow green flowers in summer.

Plants may be shipped bare root.

Provide porous soil with adequate drainage, pots with drainage hole are recommended. Bright, filtered light and ample airflow. Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch. Never let your succulents sit in water. Do NOT water on the leaves. If you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes. The hotter it is outside, the faster your soil will dry out, so you’ll need to water more often if you live in a hot area. Water with caution in winter, as the plant can lose its roots if the soil stays cold and wet for extended periods; protect from frost to prevent scarring.

Wrong order poor CS

I ordered a 4 inch and specifically wrote in notes that if they didn't have 4 inch I didn't want the order. I received babies which is exactly what I said I didn't want.They've blatantly ignored my concerns and ignored the BBB with my complaint. I ordered extra soil and also didn't get it. The only response I've received from this company is an offer of half of what I paid. Customer service is poor and if you don't receive what you ordered they won't make it right.
