RAIN, RAIN, RAIN

We've received quite a lot of Spring rains the past couple of days in Melbourne. Although it was much needed, we also had some unfortunate flooding in some suburbs, high winds with trees uprooted and interruption to the electricity supply in some neighbourhoods. In the western suburbs there was even a mini tornado that went through and caused some havoc.

KALANCHOE

Kalanchoe uniflora is a very versatile, easy to care for succulent with small oval-shaped, flat green leaves on burgundy stems that burst out with vivid red, bell shaped flowers in spring. It's a gorgeous trailing plant perfect for hanging baskets, grown in rockeries or hot spots in your garden.

Kalanchoe, is a genus of about 125 species of tropical, succulent plants in the stonecrop family Crassulaceae, mainly native to Madagascar and tropical Africa. A Kalanchoe species was one of the first plants to be sent into space, sent on a resupply to the Soviet Salyut 1 space station in 1979.[4] The majority of kalanchoes require around 6–8 hours of sunlight a day; a few cannot tolerate this, and survive with bright, indirect sunlight to bright shade.
