This exquisite plant is a member of the Kalanchoe genus within the Crassulaceae family. The Life Plant, with its distinctive drooping stems adorned with rosettes of succulent leaves and vibrant, star-shaped flowers, is a captivating sight. The plant's common name is derived from its unique ability to propagate new plants from its leaf margins, giving it the appearance of coming back to life. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich botanical history of Bermuda, an island renowned for its diverse flora. The Life Plant, with its intriguing appearance and intriguing propagation method, has long been a subject of fascination for both local residents and visitors. The Crassulaceae family, to which the Life Plant belongs, is a large and diverse group of succulent plants, characterized by their thick, fleshy leaves that store water. This adaptation enables them to thrive in arid environments, making them well-suited to the climate of Bermuda. As you gaze upon this charming photograph, you are transported back in time, allowing you to appreciate the natural beauty and history of the Life Plant in its native habitat.
