I\u2019ve narrowed down this list to plants with flowers that start with K and it includes other information as well. This means that all these flowering plants will include additional information to help you make your choice.<\/p>\n

Originally native to tropical Africa and Madagascar, Kalanchoe is part of the succulent family. There are 100 plus different plants in the Kalanchoe genus but the best-known of the lot is the Kalanchoe blossfeldiana<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This beautiful flowering plant has scalloped leaves and vibrant clusters of small flowers. It is one of the easiest to care for and most striking houseplants that you can find.<\/p>\n

The Kalmia latifolia plant has deep green foliage and very interesting flowers. What makes the flowers so interesting is that the buds are deep pink once they appear but open to pale pink.<\/p>\n

This gives the plant a very long flowering life and two distinctly different appearances over the year. This low-maintenance plant will do very well in a wildflower or cottage garden and is easy to care for.<\/p>\n
