My Tiny Garden - Kalanchoe blossfeldiana

I am pretty sure most of you know this plant. It is the most common Kalanchoe that you can get in a supermarket as a small plant with big, green, glossy leaves and a bouquet of small flowers in the middle.

I suppose my one would still look like that (green and glossy) if I kept it inside in mild conditioned and lots of water.

But those are succulents. And I keep all my succulents outside on the balcony. Where they get all the sun, rain, wind and temperature changes. Those changes make stress the plants and the leaves change the colours. Don't worry, it is nothing bad for the plant. This is just what they do in nature.

That's the whole plant. It's small, but super cute!

Even a popular Jade plant will do it if you keep it outside on the sun and wind. The edges of the leaves will go gorgeous and red.
