Chandelier Plant

Chandelier Plant (Mother of Millions; Kalanchoe delagoensis) - Black Point Wildlife Drive Fee Payment Station, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Titusville, Florida

There were 20 or 30 of these wildflowers growing just beyond the fence at the Black Point Wildlife Drive Fee Payment Station. They were quite an attention getter, and on close examination I could not find any leaves on the stems of the flowering heads, or around the base of the flowering stem where it came out of the ground.
I went back to the location later in the day and found that the plant also had other stems (separate from the flowering stems) which I photographed and added to the series.

This plant is a native of Madagascar and is known for vegetatively growing small plantlets on the fringes of its leaves which is the source of its other common names "mother of thousands" and "mother of millions".
