Kalanchoe Daigremontiana Pink Butterflies is a cross between K. Delagoensis and K. Daigremontiana, also known as K. x Houghtonii. It is called a "Mother of Thousands" due to its ability to propagate hundreds of new plantlets, called bulbils, from its leaf edges. These bulbils can be rooted to form new plants.
