Kalanchoe delagoensis, commonly known as Mother of Millions or Chandelier Plant, is a succulent plant native to the rocky and sandy soils of Madagascar. It can grow up to 7 feet tall and has a distinctive growth form with cylindrical, reddish-green leaves. These leaves bear tiny plantlets along their margins, which can easily drop off and root to form new plants. The plant is known for its ability to survive in drought conditions and thrives in full sun with well-draining soil.

Mother of Millions is valued for its unique appearance and low water requirements, making it a popular choice for xeriscaping and as an ornamental plant in rock gardens. However, its prolific reproductive strategy through plantlets makes it a potential invasive species outside its native range. It is important to manage its spread to prevent it from becoming a weed, as has happened in regions like eastern Australia and South Africa. In cultivation, it requires minimal care, but it is sensitive to frost and overwatering, which can lead to root rot.CC BY-SA 4.0
