Succulent glabrous perennial herbs, allied to Bryophyllum but with small calyx and diverging carpels: sts. flexuose, bearing many opposite sessile or stalked fleshy crenate lvs.: fls. large for the plant, bright red, terminal, often in loose racemes, the parts in 4's; calyx-segms. as long as tube; corolla-tube campanulate or tubular, sometimes larger in middle, with 4 short lobes; stamens 8: carpels 4, free, making small many-seeded follicles.—Species 10, in Madagascar. K. uniflora, Stapf, is an attractive prostrate sedum-like plant, rooting at the joints: lvs. obovate and obtuse, less than 1 in. long, bright green: fls. solitary or 3 together, bright red, the corolla-tube narrowed at both apex and base, about 1 in. long and half as thick; stamens polymorphic.
