Where it grows wild

The only climate site sits at about 1,350 m on the central plateau west of Antananarivo. Highland Kalanchoe of this kind grow on rock outcrops and thin soils in open grassland; this is inferred from the genus, not documented for this species.

One modelled site at about 1,350 m; no GBIF records carry an elevation.
