Are you looking to add some color and life to your indoor space or garden? Look no further than the Kalanchoe beharensis, a vibrant member of the genus Kalanchoe! Hailing all the way from Madagascar, it has several other common names such as elephant ear kalanchoe, velvet leaf plant, and felt bush. 

The Kalanchoe beharensis is known for its unique appearance, with large, fleshy, velvety leaves that are covered in fine hairs, giving them a fuzzy texture. The silvery-green leaves have a slightly scalloped or serrated edge, which adds to their visual appeal.  

This felt bush plant can grow up to 6 feet tall in its natural environment, but it can also be pruned to keep a more compact size if preferred. It can grow both indoors and outdoors, including its most amazing variety, the Kalanchoe beharensis fang (Felt plant). The stems of the Kalanchoe beharensis are thick and woody, providing stability and structure to this succulent plant. 

The flowers of the Kalanchoe beharensis elephant ear plant are small and inconspicuous compared to its stunning leaves. They typically appear in clusters at the top of tall succulent stems. The greenish-yellow flowers add a subtle touch to the plant's overall appearance. While the flowers may not be the main attraction, they still contribute to the beauty of this unique succulent. 

To propagate the Kalanchoe beharensis elephant's ears kalanchoe, you can use stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. With time and proper care, the cutting will develop roots and grow into a new plant. It's an exciting way to expand your collection of these beautiful Kalanchoe varieties! 

Watering Needs 

Native to arid regions of Madagascar, the Kalanchoe beharensis has moderate watering needs. It's important to strike a balance when watering this elephant ear plant to keep it happy and healthy. 

When it comes to watering, the Kalanchoe beharensis prefers a "soak and dry" approach. This means that you should thoroughly water your elephant ear Kalanchoe until the excess water just drains out of the bottom of the pot, allowing the soil to become moist. However, it's crucial to let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent overwatering, which can lead to root rot. 

During the growing season, which is typically spring and summer, you can water it more frequently, about once every 1-2 weeks. But during the dormant period in winter, when this Kalanchoe plant is not actively growing, you should reduce watering to once every 3-4 weeks.

Remember, it's always better to be underwater than overwater your Kalanchoe beharensis. So, keep an eye on the soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule accordingly. And don't forget to provide good drainage by using a well-drained potting mix and a pot with drainage holes. 

Light Requirements 

The Kalanchoe beharensis loves bright light. This elephant-ear succulent thrives in a spot that receives plenty of full sun to partial sun throughout the day. Placing it near a south or west-facing window is ideal, as it will get the right amount of indirect light without being exposed to direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. 

If you don't have a window with adequate sunlight, you can also use artificial grow lights to supplement the natural light. Just make sure to keep the Kalanchoe plants at least a foot away from the light source to prevent leaf burn. 

While the Kalanchoe beharensis can tolerate some shade, it won't thrive in low-light conditions. Lack of light can cause the elephant ear kalanchoe to become leggy and lose its vibrant color. So, be sure to give it the bright light it craves, and it will reward you with its stunning foliage! 

Remember, finding the right balance of light and water will keep your Kalanchoe beharensis elephant's ear Kalanchoe happy and healthy.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Kalanchoe beharensis favors very airy soil, moist, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting soil, or ideally, use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your elephant ear kalanchoe plants to thrive. 

As for fertilizing, the Kalanchoe beharensis doesn't require heavy feeding. During the growing season, you can fertilize your elephant ear succulent with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Apply the fertilizer once a year to provide the Kalanchoe plant with the necessary nutrients. However, during the dormant period in winter, it's best to avoid fertilizing the plant altogether. 

Remember to avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to fertilizer burn and damage to new growth on the succulent plants. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

The Kalanchoe beharensis is generally suited for USDA hardiness zones 10-11. It prefers warm temperatures and doesn't tolerate frost well, so it's best to keep it indoors or in a protected area if you live in a colder climate. 

According to the Royal Horticultural Society, this elephant ear plant thrives in average to warm temperatures between 65-85°F. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures, but it's important to avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50°F as it can cause damage to the leaves and overall health of the plant. 

As for humidity, the Kalanchoe beharensis is adaptable and can handle a range of humidity levels. It can tolerate both dry and slightly humid conditions. However, it's important to avoid excessive humidity or stagnant air, as it can lead to fungal issues or root rot. Providing good airflow around the plant is beneficial for its overall health.

Interesting twist on an Isekai
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed this novel. Not only are the two main characters well developed, but so are the side characters. The slice-of-life setup is done well, with with you (the reader) being pulled along into the story. Right from the beginning, the author is successful in getting you to be fully invested in their struggles. While the book could stand to have another editorial pass, it does not detract greatly from the story. I also really enjoyed the Beast Mountain Trials. Far from your standard dungeon run, the - contestants? participants? contender? - whatever you want to call the people who participate in the Trials alongside Erik and Rugrat, who sort of fall into the Trials while trying to just live their lives and figure out how the Ten Realms things works, all participate in the different levels to see how far they can go. While the sect elders seem to understand that passing all the levels grants that person control of the dungeon, it also seems like everybody else who participates (or has participated) stops short of the last trial. Well, either that or, while they may successfully withstand the waves of beasts - the letter of the quest - they fail in the spirit of the quest, and thus fail to "beat" the dungeon. Given the way the villagers respond to Erik and Rugrat almost every time they do something to improve the villagers - often at their own expense or sacrifice - it is clear that the Ten Realms is very much a Darwin-esque universe. The strong rise to the top; the weak fall to the bottom. Yet, the many citizens of the universe, at least in the First Realm, have clearly failed to realize that they are stronger together. Which is perhaps why no one else has successfully completed the Beast Mountain Trials. Finally, while I knew that Erik and Rugrat were going to enact their revenge upon the Moon Healing House, I did not expect ... that. Not to say that it wasn't warranted, not out of character. Nor was is really unexpected. Not really. I was just a little surprised at the sheer coldness of it. I am definitely looking forward to reading the next book, as Erik and Rugrat ascend to Second Realm to continue their work toward healing the dungeon.

Another great start to an interesting series :)
Format: Kindle
A great start to a new series, a very good hybrid between a light LitRPG and Wuxia combination which somehow is greater than the sum of its parts. For LitRPG aficionados, the leveling system is pretty basic, but solid, the crafting part bringing it a lot more flesh and sparkle. For those who like Wuxia, they will instantly recognize many of the concepts and may enjoy (as I know I did) the emergent clash between the `strength first` philosophy so prevalent in Wuxia novels and the `strength with a helping hand` model of many Western writings. The second part of the novel contains some town-building, tower-defense elements which I found well-thought out and interesting, and I am truly looking forward to the way they will develop `in the next realms`. The protagonists are interesting, you can really empathize with them, especially at first, and the character building is slow but steady. I was surprised by the specializations they chose, and I absolutely loved the healer/healing part of the world-building, for me it was fascinating. I think I read the book in one day, even it is by no means short, and I found it very enjoyable.I am looking forward to all its sequels!

It's worth the ride
Format: Kindle
I personally want to give this series a 5/5 I've read all nine books one after the other and enjoyed the entire ride through. I'm a very big fan of LitRPG's and cultivation genres and I think this series does a great job at really taking you through both of those experiences and giving fully fleshed out reasons as to why things work the way they do. The reason I am giving this series a 4/5 is because of somethings I think you need to be aware of and ready for. In which if you are it will be a good story for you. One there are editing errors these decrease as the series go on but sometimes can break you out of the emersion as you have a "Wait, what?" moment. As a said it is a minor thing hat happens less and less and can be overlooked. There are a lot of characters, and I have seen several reviews addressing how that upset them with many POV's. I understand that isn't for everyone. Personally I think it makes the world the writer puts us in feel alive and expands things to more than just Erick and Rugrat. Which is what you would expect from a series that has literally 10 different planets. These POV's are also used to show the effects Eric and Rugrat have on the people and places they interact with. Gotta have a little bit of an attention span to read about a world like that. That's it those are the two things that I personally felt could knock this story down to a 4/5 The realms is funny, action pack, things have a long lasting ripple effect that matter as you progress and the characters with all their power still always feel grounded in a way that makes you cheer for their wins and mourn their loses. I saw a lot of negativity about this series as a whole and I will stand by my title this series is worth the ride. "Oorah"

Wonderful middle grade book
Format: Hardcover
This book is part historical fiction and part sci-fi. I bought because we like getting the Newberry award winner every year. We loved this story. It was fun read a book placed when I was kid and see/show my kids how much the world has changed, but it also had a fun time travel element. This coming of age follows a kid and his worries about Y2k. He deals with the death of a friend and worries about everything. We loved this story and it's special sections back i to the future making it easy to believe that time travel is real.
