Kalanchoe suarezensis is a succulent subshrub from northern Madagascar, grown as an ornamental and often confused with related species. It needs bright light, sharp drainage and infrequent watering, like other Kalanchoes.
Kalanchoe suarezensis is a species of Kalanchoe (section Bryophyllum) native to northern Madagascar.
It is cultivated as an ornamental plant, but often misidentified as other species like K. gastonis-bonnieri, K. mortagei and K. poincarei. K. gastonis-bonnieri differs by more or less having brownish spots on leaves, while the leaves of K. suarezensis are spotless. K. mortagei differs by having auriculate to peltate leaves, while the leaf base of K. suarezensis is attenuate to truncate. K. poincarei is a sprawling species not known in cultivation, very different from all the species mentioned above.
