Kalanchoe is an ornamental plant belonging to the genus Kalanchoe, Crassulaceae family. It has pink, red, white, yellow, yellow, purple flowered species and is a short day plant. Ornamental plants have become an indispensable element over time in meeting these needs of people both indoors and outdoors. Ornamental plants are categorized into four groups as cut flowers, geophytes, indoor and outdoor ornamental plants, and one of the most widely used ornamental plants indoors is Kalanchoe. Tissue culture is the most suitable production method for the conservation of plant genetic resources, and it is a production method that allows rapid and large amounts of plant propagation vegetatively. In micropropagation studies, stem (shoot tip, internodes and internodes), leaf (leaf blade and petiole) and flower parts were taken as explant sources. In this study, in vitro propagation possibilities of materials with pink and yellow flower types were investigated. In the study, 2 different propagation protocols (0.5 mg/l BAP +0.05 mg/l IAA and 2 mg/l BAP+1 mg/l IAA) and 3 different rooting protocols (1 mg/l IBA, 3 g/l activated charcoal, 5 g/l activated charcoal) were tested in both species. In the study, the effect of species on reproductive capacity was found to be significant and the reproductive capacity of the species with pink flowers was found to be higher than that of the species with yellow flowers. In addition, 2 mg/l BAP+1 mg/l IAA medium was found to have a significant effect on multiplication capacity, while 5 g/l activated charcoal was found to have a significant effect on rooting capacity
