Talk:Kalanchoe pinnata

A fact from Kalanchoe pinnata appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 October 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Kalanchoe pinnata (pictured), a succulent plant native to Madagascar, has been recorded in Trinidad and Tobago as being used as a traditional treatment for high blood pressure?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/October.

I've put some basics here, but I'm a little unsure on the native range. The USDA GRIN Taxonomy for Plants seems to say that it's just Madagascar. Other sources suggest a very wide range, but this may just be where it is naturalized. Anyone know more? Rupert Clayton 18:07, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to fix it, but the second picture is not Kalanchoe ZDS —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.140.66.154 (talk) 18:09, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is a Kalanchoe, Bryophyllum is just a synonym.Tsinitoboy (talk) 07:32, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Air Plant" is confusing[edit]

"Air plant" is also used very commonly (perhaps more commonly) to refer to small, densely scaly members of Tillandsia such as T. ionantha. I have never heard of this name being used for K. pinnata. I think this name should be mentioned along with the other common names, and then the botanical name should be used to avoid confusion. --♦♦♦Vlmastra♦♦♦ (talk) 17:48, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading picture[edit]

The flower picture is misleading because the leaves pictured are not from K. pinnata. A better picture would be this one. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Kalanchoe_pinnata#mediaviewer/File:Starr_070308-5336_Kalanchoe_pinnata.jpg

That seems like a good suggestion. I made the change. Rupert Clayton (talk) 04:46, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody claims that this plant could be fatal to human beings[edit]

In traditional medicine, it is recommended to eat the leaves of this plant for 7 days or so, to cure kidney stones. But in this article someone is claiming that it could be fatal to eat the leaves. Either provide a citation or kindly revert this false claim. அண்ணாமலை குருசாமி (talk) 05:28, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
