One of the standout features of this variety is its vibrant flower color. The petals showcase a medium yellow to orange hue, specifically classified as yellow-medium yellow orange-014C.

Standing at a compact height of 10-20 cm, Kalanchoe blossfeldiana is ideal for small gardens, balconies, or indoor settings. Its relatively short stature allows it to fit perfectly in various spaces without overpowering the surrounding plants or decor.

The flowers themselves have a modest size, with a length and height of 2-2.5 cm. While individually small, they form dense clusters on the plant, creating a delightful display. The inflorescence is arranged in a corymb pattern, with the flowers radiating from a central point to form a rounded cluster.

The leaves of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana are equally attractive. They range in size from 7.5-10 cm, offering a substantial presence alongside the petite flowers. The leaves are simple in their division, displaying an undivided appearance.

The main color of the leaves is a rich, dark green, which serves as an excellent backdrop for the vibrant flowers. This contrast enhances the overall visual appeal of the plant, making it an eye-catching addition to any space.

Caring for Kalanchoe blossfeldiana is relatively easy, as it is a hardy plant. It thrives in well-draining soil, and regular watering is essential. However, it is important not to overwater the plant, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight and can adapt to a range of temperatures.

Whether used as a decorative potted plant indoors or as a vibrant addition to a garden, Kalanchoe blossfeldiana double Spring Yellow is sure to bring joy and beauty wherever it is displayed. Its unique flower form, stunning color, and compact size make it a popular choice among plant enthusiasts.
