By Greenhouse Grower staff|May 18, 2010

ForemostCo and Hawaiian Sunshine Nursery announced an exclusive licensing agreement Monday for the production and sales of the kalanchoe ‘Fantastic’ in North America.

Kalanchoe ‘Fantastic’ was introduced by Hawaiian Sunshine Nursery at the TPIE show in January 2010, and it received the Favorite New Foliage Plant Award, as well as the Retailer’s Choice Award.

ForemostCo will release the first cuttings for shipment in spring 2011.

‘Fantastic’ is a succulent perennial with a compact form and beautiful variegation. Dramatic red edging intermixed with golden highlights begins at the leaf tip and flushes over the plant’s silvery-green, rounded leaves. ‘Fantastic’ can grow up to 24 inches tall and wide, and it prefers full sun and slightly dry conditions.
