Kalanchoe ‘Pink Butterflies’, also sometimes referred to as Pink Mother of Thousands, is a variegated form of Kalanchoe x houghtonii. The species itself is a hybrid cross between Kalanchoe diagremontiana and Kalanchoe delagoensis.
Though beautiful, this plant is unique from the hybridized parent plants in that it is viviparous, which means it can produce tiny plantlets along the leaf margins that can readily take root once fallen.
Pink Butterflies produce tiny plantlets along its leaf margins, but these vibrant pink plantlets rarely root. Their beautiful pink color is due to a lack of chlorophyll, which means they eventually die once separated from the main plant.

Caring for kalanchoe
1) They can be easily acclimatised to hot and humid climates.
2) Direct afternoon sunlight will scorch the leaves, filtered sunlight is more suitable for this species. Shift to a brighter location for more deeply coloured leaves.
3) Provide well draining soil mix, it is not fussy about soil mix as long as it is porous and well draining
4) Kalanchoe can be propagated by leaves or stem cuttings. Leaves that have been broken in half can even be propagated
