Kalanchoe named Montezuma

Abstract

A kalanchoe cultivar for greenhouse culture as a potted plant and suitable for year around flowering with photoperiod control, characterized by its intense orange colored florets of medium size which exhibit minimal fading upon aging and which bloom over an extended period due to several weeks of continuous flower bud development. This cultivar is a plant of medium height with an abundance of relatively large glossy foliage at its base, a uniform 10-week response, and a strong resistance to powdery mildew.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of kalanchoe plant, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized by its abundant display of intense orange colored florets appearing on stems of medium height extending from a base of relatively large, glossy green foliage.
