Kalanchoe thyrsiflora, commonly known as paddle plant or flapjack, is a succulent species known for its thick, paddle-shaped leaves that form a rosette. The leaves are usually pale green with red or pink tinges along the edges, especially when exposed to bright sunlight. It produces tall flower stalks with small, tubular yellow flowers. Native to South Africa, it thrives in dry, sunny environments and is popular as an ornamental plant for its striking appearance and drought tolerance.
