Here is yet another of the many succulents I purchased at Home Depot this winter. This one is
Kalanchoe fedtschenkoi variegata 'Aurora Borealis'. I already have one of these at work, but I've had a lot of problems with that particular specimen. All of the leaf edges (specifically, where the white part is) keep burning and turning necrotic. Maybe this is because this is a chimera? I'm hoping this new plant will have fewer problems.
Like other kalanchoes, this plant will eventually form little plantlets on the leaf margins.
And here's the tag. This specimen doesn't have as much of the pink coloration as my previous one, but then again, it has been sitting in a dim Home Depot warehouse for weeks. It'll probably color up soon.
