Kalanchoe double flowering

Kalanchoe Adans.

Double flowering in Kalanchoe is a varietal trait characterized by a multi-layered corolla structure, where the flower visually resembles a rose.

In the reference 41 varieties crop Kalanchoe, where this is mentioned in the description.

In single-flowered forms of Kalanchoe, the flower has a typical structure with four petals. Through the breeding of double-flowered varieties, such as those in the Kalandiva or Grandiva cultivar groups, plants have been developed whose flowers are distinguished by a multi-layered structure and the presence of numerous petals.

The trait is hereditary and is assessed visually as a qualitative characteristic, having no metric units of measurement in agronomic practice. Double flowering does not entail specific changes in cultivation agrotechnics, as double-flowered varieties remain short-day plants and require adherence to standard forcing protocols.
