Wetman added: "The American localism Kalancho (sic) comes from local usage among people so isolated from the cultural mainstream that they thought the final e of Kalanchoë was silent, and merely decorative. In fact, "Kalanchoë" rhymes with 'no way'."
The article refers to "The section Bryophyllum - formerly an independent genus" but in fact this group of species is still considered a separate genus by some botanists. Either way of treating Bryophyllum--as a genus or as a group within Kalanchoe--is a POV; both can be found in the botanical and horticultural literature, and there doesn't seem to be any consensus as to which way to handle this group.

User Apokryltaros states that Adanson named the genus after either Kalanchoe ceratophylla or Kalanchoe spathulata. We need to find a reference for this statement. Apokryltaros has referenced the GRIN data sheets for these species at [1] and [2], but what we really need is a source that makes the claim that Adanson got the generic name from the Chinese vernacular name for one of these species. Does anyone have a print or web reference that makes this claim? Rupert Clayton ( talk) 22:13, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

If the IPA is correct and the stress on the third syllable, the pseudo-phonetics should be kal-ən-KOH-ee.
