Variety traits
Plant height of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana
Kalanchoe blossfeldiana Poelln.
An important indicator of ornamental value and quality, determined by genetics and cultivation technology. For commercial varieties, a height of 8–15 cm is considered optimal, and exceeding this indicates a violation of agronomic practices.
In the reference 36 varieties crop Flaming Katy, where this is mentioned in the description.
According to UPOV guidelines, height measurements are taken during the flowering period under controlled conditions, as the parameter is highly dependent on light intensity and photoperiod. For typical compact varieties in 10.5 cm diameter pots, the standard values are 8–15 cm, whereas without growth control, plants can stretch to 30–40 cm or more.
Excessive height is often accompanied by etiolation and loss of ornamental quality. Over-stretching of stems negatively impacts reproductive functions, reducing the number of flower buds, and creates favorable conditions for the development of fungal diseases and pests due to sparse branching.
