Scientific Name Kalanchoe pinnata (Lam.) Pers.
Common Names Air Plant, Cathedral Bells, Life Plant, Miracle Leaf, Goethe Plant, Curtain Plant, Floppers, Good Luck Leaf, Mexican Love Plant, Mother in Law Synonyms Cotyledon pinnata (basionym), Bryophyllum calycinum, Bryophyllum pinnatum, Crassula pinnata
Scientific Classification Family: Crassulaceae Subfamily: Sedoideae Tribe: Kalanchoeae Genus: Kalanchoe
Description Kalanchoe pinnata is an erect succulent, glabrous herb, up to 5 feet (1.2 m) tall. The stems are hollow, fleshy and dark green. Leaves are scalloped and red along margins. Flowers are bell‐like, reddish-purple, pendent, in large spreading panicles with opposite stout branches.
How to Grow and Care Kalanchoes are not particularly hard to grow, and the flowering varieties are highly rewarding for their colorful and long-lasting flowers. Many people discard the plants after the bloom is over, but this isn’t really necessary. Simply cut off the flowering head, let the plant rest with reduced water, and resume its normal care. It should flower naturally in spring. Professional growers force Kalanchoes to bloom throughout the year (they are a short-day plant).
The two pendant Kalanchoes make excellent hanging plants. They prefer bright, sunny locations, especially in the summer growing season. During the winter, consider a south-facing window. Water moderately throughout the summer and reduce watering in the winter. Let the soil surface dry out between waterings, and in the winter, the plant can almost dry out.

Scientific Name Crassula perfoliata var. minor (Haw.) G.D.Rowley
Common Names Airplane Plant, Propeller Plant, Red Crassula, Scarlet Paintbrush Synonyms Crassula falcata, Crassula perfoliata var. falcata, Crassula perfoliata subsp. falcata, Rochea falcata Scientific Classification Family: Crassulaceae Subfamily: Crassuloideae Genus: Crassula
Description Crassula perfoliata var. minor is a succulent plant that grows to 2 feet (60 cm) tall with gray-green 4 inch (10 cm) long and 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide sickle-shaped leaves that are arranged in overlapping pairs along a usually unbranched stem. Tiny scarlet red flowers are massed together in very showy dense clusters that rise above foliage in mid summer. The flowers open slowly and last for nearly a month when in full bloom. Attractive and interesting when not in bloom but a show stopper when the bright red flowers emerge.
How to Grow and Care Crassula are easy to grow, but they are susceptible to mealy bugs and fungal diseases. As with all succulents, overwatering is sure to be fatal, so err on the side of too dry rather than too wet. Never let your Crassula sit in water. 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.
Crassula are generally started by division, offsets or leaf cuttings. Plants can be easily propagated from a single leaf: sprout leaves by placing them into a succulent or cacti mix, then covering the dish until they sprout. Repot as needed, preferably during the warm season.

Scientific Name Leuchtenbergia principis Hook.
Common Names Agave Cactus, Cob Cactus, Prism Cactus Scientific Classification Family: Cactaceae Subfamily: Cactoideae Tribe: Cacteae Genus: Leuchtenbergia
Description Leuchtenbergia principis is the sole species of the genus Leuchtenbergia. It is very slow-growing but can eventually grow up to 2.3 feet (70 cm) high, with a cylindrical stem which becomes bare and corky at the base with age. It has long, slender, grayish-green tubercles up to 3 inches (12.5 cm) long, with purplish-red blotches at their tips. The tubercles are topped with papery spines, making the plant resemble an Agave. After four years or so, yellow, funnel-shaped flowers up to 2.4 inches (6 cm) in diameter may be borne at the tubercle tips. The fruit is smooth and green, up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) long and 0.8 inch (2 cm) broad.
How to Grow and Care The Agave Cactus is a reasonably easy and tolerant plant, and should grow well given the basic guidelines for growing cacti and other succulents. However, this is a desert species, which is adapted to arid conditions, and seems to benefit from intense solar radiation. It should always be moved to a position outside during the warmer months of spring through early fall to benefit from exposure to direct sunlight, and the increased temperatures of summer.
Grown exclusively indoors, this species will slowly languish from the comparatively low light levels of interior spaces, and will probably never really thrive. Grown outdoors, this plant has proven to be a reliable bloomer, invariably producing intermittent blooms from late June through September. Despite its desert origins, Agave Cactus tolerate a remarkable amount of rain through their outdoor growing season, but due to their large, turnip-like roots, they can be very susceptible to root rot when exposed to extended cool and wet conditions, so the potting medium should be especially gritty to provide that extra drainage necessary for this species, and extra care should be given through the winter months to prevent over-watering this species.

Scientific Name Stapelia hirsuta L.
Common Names Synonyms Stapelia hirsuta var. hirsuta, Gonostemon hirsutus, Stisseria hirsuta Scientific Classification Family: Apocynaceae Subfamily: Asclepiadoideae Tribe: Stapeliae Genus: Stapelia
Description Stapelia hirsuta has subquadrangular stems up to 8 inches (20 cm) high, with flat, very hairy dark-red flowers resembling rotting meat. Corolla can reach a width of up to 6 inches (15 cm). The flowering period extends from late summer through late autumn. This species is extremely variable with various subspecies and many hybrids.
How to Grow and Care Several species are fairly easy to grow. Others, often those with slightly hairy stems and the more unusual flowers, are more challenging and require careful watering (with some fertiliser) during the growing season and complete withdrawal of water during the winter months. A minimum winter temperature of 10°C (50°CF) is acceptable, providing that plants are kept absolutely dry. A heated growing bench or incubator may help delicate plants to get throught the colder months. However, many species live under shrubs in habitat and prefer light shade rather than full sun.
A gritty compost is essential, and clay pots are advisable for the more delicate species. Some growers prefer a mineral-only compost to minimize the chance of fungal attack on the roots. A layer of grit on the surface of the compost prevents moisture from accumulating around the base of the stems.
Keeping Stapelias and their roots free of pests such as mealy bugs is the real key to success as fungal attack often occurs as a result of damage to stems by insects.

Scientific Name Sansevieria zeylanica (L.) Willd.
Common Names Cylindrical Snake Plant, African Spear, Spear Sansevieria, Spear Orchid, Skyline Spear Sansevieria Synonyms Acyntha cylindrica, Cordyline cylindrica, Sansevieria angolensis, Sansevieria livingstoniae Scientific Classification Family: Asparagaceae Subfamily: Crassuloideae Genus: Sansevieria
Description Sansevieria cylindrica is a very striking succulent with striped, round leaves that are smooth and a green-gray in color. A single leaf is up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) thick and grows to a height between 3 feet (90 cm) and 7 feet (2.1 m). It grows fan-shaped, with its stiff leaves growing from a basal rosette. If grown in bright enough light this plant can produce a 3 foot (90 cm) spike-like raceme of pink-budded white flowers.
How to Grow and Care Place Sansevierias in moderately bright or filtered light. Good locations include a spot in front of a north-facing window or in front of a bright, sunny window covered by a sheer curtain. Although the plant tolerates low light, bright light brings out the colors in the leaves. However, intense light may cause the edges of the leaves to turn yellow. Allow the soil to dry completely before watering, and then water deeply until water drips through the drainage hole. Allow the pot to drain and then discard water that remains in the saucer. Never allow the soil to become soggy and never let the pot stand in water. Water sparingly throughout the winter.
Like most succulent plants that store water in their leaves, Sansevieria rots quickly in excessively wet soil. Place Sansevieria in average room temperatures.

Scientific Name Euphorbia tirucalli L.
Common Names Firestick Plants, Sticks on Fire, African Milk Bush, Finger Tree, Indian Tree Spurge, Milk Bush, Milk Hedge, Naked Lady, Pencil Tree, Pencil Euphorbia, Pencil Cactus, Petroleum Plant, Rubber Euphorbia, Rubber Hedge Euphorbia
Synonyms Arthrothamnus bergii, Arthrothamnus ecklonii, Arthrothamnus tirucalli, Euphorbia geayi, Euphorbia laro, Euphorbia media, Euphorbia media var. bagshawei, Euphorbia rhipsaloides, Euphorbia scoparia, Euphorbia suareziana, Euphorbia tirucalli var. rhipsaloides, Euphorbia viminalis, Tirucalia indica, Tirucalia tirucalli Scientific Classification Family: Euphorbiaceae Subfamily: Euphorbioideae Tribe: Euphorbieae Subtribe: Euphorbiinae Genus: Euphorbia
Description Euphorbia tirucalli is a succulent, spineless, hardy green shrub, up to 33 feet (10 m) tall. The branches are cylindrical, smooth and glabrous-green, up to 0.31 inch (8 mm) in diameter, forming brush-like masses. The leaves are small and slender, up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) long and up to 0.16 inch (4 mm) wide. The flowers are yellow, inconspicuous, and carried in clusters at the apex of the short branches or in the angles of branches. Fruits are tripartite capsules, up to 0.47 inch ( 12 mm) in diameter.
How to Grow and Care Euphorbias are very easy to care for. They require a little pampering to become established, but once they are, they are self-sufficient. In fact, more die from too much care and watering than from neglect. Euphorbias need well-draining soil and lots of sunlight. They are not particular about soil pH, but they cannot tolerant wet soil.
