Bryophyllum manginii, beach bells, is a species of flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae, native to Madagascar. It is an evergreen succulent perennial growing to 30 cm (12 in) tall and wide, with arching branches of rounded, glossy leaves, and urn-shaped salmon-red flowers in spring.[2] As the minimum temperature for growth is 10 °C (50 °F), in temperate regions this plant must be grown under glass as a houseplant.

It is still widely referenced under its synonym Kalanchoe manginii.

This plant has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[3][4]
