Are you looking to add some color and life to your indoor space or garden? Look no further than the Kalanchoe beharensis, a vibrant member of the genus Kalanchoe! Hailing all the way from Madagascar, it has several other common names such as elephant ear kalanchoe, velvet leaf plant, and felt bush. 

The Kalanchoe beharensis is known for its unique appearance, with large, fleshy, velvety leaves that are covered in fine hairs, giving them a fuzzy texture. The silvery-green leaves have a slightly scalloped or serrated edge, which adds to their visual appeal.  

This felt bush plant can grow up to 6 feet tall in its natural environment, but it can also be pruned to keep a more compact size if preferred. It can grow both indoors and outdoors, including its most amazing variety, the Kalanchoe beharensis fang (Felt plant). The stems of the Kalanchoe beharensis are thick and woody, providing stability and structure to this succulent plant. 

The flowers of the Kalanchoe beharensis elephant ear plant are small and inconspicuous compared to its stunning leaves. They typically appear in clusters at the top of tall succulent stems. The greenish-yellow flowers add a subtle touch to the plant's overall appearance. While the flowers may not be the main attraction, they still contribute to the beauty of this unique succulent. 

To propagate the Kalanchoe beharensis elephant's ears kalanchoe, you can use stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. With time and proper care, the cutting will develop roots and grow into a new plant. It's an exciting way to expand your collection of these beautiful Kalanchoe varieties! 

Watering Needs 

Native to arid regions of Madagascar, the Kalanchoe beharensis has moderate watering needs. It's important to strike a balance when watering this elephant ear plant to keep it happy and healthy. 

When it comes to watering, the Kalanchoe beharensis prefers a "soak and dry" approach. This means that you should thoroughly water your elephant ear Kalanchoe until the excess water just drains out of the bottom of the pot, allowing the soil to become moist. However, it's crucial to let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent overwatering, which can lead to root rot. 

During the growing season, which is typically spring and summer, you can water it more frequently, about once every 1-2 weeks. But during the dormant period in winter, when this Kalanchoe plant is not actively growing, you should reduce watering to once every 3-4 weeks.

Remember, it's always better to be underwater than overwater your Kalanchoe beharensis. So, keep an eye on the soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule accordingly. And don't forget to provide good drainage by using a well-drained potting mix and a pot with drainage holes. 

Light Requirements 

The Kalanchoe beharensis loves bright light. This elephant-ear succulent thrives in a spot that receives plenty of full sun to partial sun throughout the day. Placing it near a south or west-facing window is ideal, as it will get the right amount of indirect light without being exposed to direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. 

If you don't have a window with adequate sunlight, you can also use artificial grow lights to supplement the natural light. Just make sure to keep the Kalanchoe plants at least a foot away from the light source to prevent leaf burn. 

While the Kalanchoe beharensis can tolerate some shade, it won't thrive in low-light conditions. Lack of light can cause the elephant ear kalanchoe to become leggy and lose its vibrant color. So, be sure to give it the bright light it craves, and it will reward you with its stunning foliage! 

Remember, finding the right balance of light and water will keep your Kalanchoe beharensis elephant's ear Kalanchoe happy and healthy.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Kalanchoe beharensis favors very airy soil, moist, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting soil, or ideally, use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your elephant ear kalanchoe plants to thrive. 

As for fertilizing, the Kalanchoe beharensis doesn't require heavy feeding. During the growing season, you can fertilize your elephant ear succulent with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Apply the fertilizer once a year to provide the Kalanchoe plant with the necessary nutrients. However, during the dormant period in winter, it's best to avoid fertilizing the plant altogether. 

Remember to avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to fertilizer burn and damage to new growth on the succulent plants. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

The Kalanchoe beharensis is generally suited for USDA hardiness zones 10-11. It prefers warm temperatures and doesn't tolerate frost well, so it's best to keep it indoors or in a protected area if you live in a colder climate. 

According to the Royal Horticultural Society, this elephant ear plant thrives in average to warm temperatures between 65-85°F. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures, but it's important to avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50°F as it can cause damage to the leaves and overall health of the plant. 

As for humidity, the Kalanchoe beharensis is adaptable and can handle a range of humidity levels. It can tolerate both dry and slightly humid conditions. However, it's important to avoid excessive humidity or stagnant air, as it can lead to fungal issues or root rot. Providing good airflow around the plant is beneficial for its overall health.

My dog loves them
Love them but wish they were a bit more durable. The bounce high, fit the thrower and they don’t weight too much. A little steep on price but the dog loves them

EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!!!!
If I could give it 10 stars, I would. This ball is AMAZING! Love that it's rechargeable, that it shuts off after 10 minutes of inactivity, that it changes colors. It's dark by the time I get home from work so playing ball in the dark with this ball is a game changer.

Was hopeful…
Was hoping this version would be better, but no. Welcome to the Nite Ize repair center. The pictures show the old version run by LED batteries. Although they claim the balls are waterproof, no. I’ve learned to clean out the contacts and add new batteries to reuse them, but a lot of the time the rust has already formed. The new rechargeable version is more expensive and has the same ‘waterproof’ casing. First charge was good; second charge didn’t even last for our retrieving sessions one evening. Third session on a full Charge didn’t even last one session. Too much money for the quality. When they work - they are great. Unfortunately, still the best on the market, it it’s just like throwing away money. Innovators???

Works Great! Very bright
My dog and I really love this ball. Bought this so we can play in the field behind our house at night. Tried other balls, like the glowing ones, but they're not bright enough. Other battery powered balls don't stay on long enough and I got tired of looking for them in the dark. This one stays on, depending on the switch setting, either 5 minutes, or indefinitely until it's shut off or until the battery dies. The battery, according to the instructions, should last 10 hours before needing recharging. I've charged it once when it was received, haven't had to re-charge it yet, played with it about 7 nights now 20 min each time and it's still going. Others have said it's not very durable, but I've found it to be durable enough to play catch with our border collie, haven't had any issues. but I don't let him chomp on it all he wants, just throw it and he brings it back. I suppose if your dog is an aggressive chewer and you let him just sit there and go to town on it, it won't last very long, just like any other ball. We use this ball only at night when needed, and use cheaper balls at other times to increase its life span.

THIS IS A MUST-BUY! If you have a dog--you NEED this ball!
Color: Orange
We have two 18-month-old chocolate Labs (brothers—basically twins with paws). The best time to walk them is early morning or just before dark… which is exactly how we managed to lose approximately 9,472 tennis balls in our cornfield. RIP, brave yellow soldiers. So I went searching for a ball that didn’t just glow—I wanted one that full-on lights up like a tiny dog disco. Enter this LED ball. Game. Changer. Our walks are now way more fun. The ball bounces, flashes, and changes colors like it’s auditioning for a rave. People literally slow their cars as they drive past our field just to watch the light show. I’m not saying we’re local celebrities now… but I’m not not saying that either. And here’s the real magic: when the boys get distracted and abandon the ball (because squirrel), it stays lit so I can actually find it. We also bought a ball launcher from Walmart for about $9, and the LED ball fits perfectly—same size as a tennis ball, just 100x cooler. This ball is waterproof and mostly floats, although I haven’t been brave enough to throw it into the pond or river because I’m positive my dogs would treat that as a full-scale navy search mission and never find it again. It’s easy to charge, and even with 2–3 hours of walking daily, I only have to plug it in every few weeks. We’ve had it for months now and it’s still going strong—super durable. We don’t let them chew on it off-walk (because Labs), but during fetch? It’s a champ. Also—small but hilarious detail—when they catch it, their mouths light up. I have accidentally created glow-in-the-dark dogs. I love this ball so much I’m buying a backup because life without it is not an option. Best dog toy EVER. Whoever invented this deserves a medal, a parade, and a lifelong supply of tennis balls they’ll never lose again. 🐾💡
