The Kalanchoe orgyalis 'Copper Spoons' is a stunning, low-maintenance succulent known for its thick, spoon-shaped leaves covered in velvety, copper-bronze fuzz. As the plant matures, the leaves transition to a muted silver-green on the underside, with a rich, rusty-bronze upper surface. This contrast gives the plant a striking sculptural appearance, making it a standout feature in any succulent garden, rockery, or indoor plant collection.

Over time, Copper Spoons can reach 1m in height, forming a woody base with upright growth. In winter and early spring, mature plants produce small, tubular yellow flowers, adding extra seasonal interest.
