Kalanchoe daigremontiana can spread by both seeds and by plantlets dropped from its leaves. Kalanchoe daigremontiana has an umbrella-like terminal inflorescence (a compound cyme) of small bell-shaped, grayish pink (or sometimes orange) flowers.

Kalanchoe blossfeldiana is a glabrous, [11] bushy, evergreen and perennial succulent plant which (in 2–5 years) [13] can reach an ultimate height of between 30 and 45 cm (12 and 18 in) [2] and an ultimate spread of between 10 and 50 cm (4 and 19.5 in). [13]
The hanging flowers sit on 0.7 to 1 centimeter long flower stalks. The green to greenish-red calyx tube is 0.4 to 0.8 millimeters long and ends in egg-shaped, pointed tips that are 6.5 to 9 millimeters long and 2.4 to 3.5 millimeters wide. The corolla is urn-shaped, red-orange to bright red.
