Solution

The correct option is D Kalanchoe
Epiphyllous buds are the buds that arise from the adaxial surface of leaves in Kalanchoe plants.
These plants are found in desert areas and are succulent in nature for the storage of water.
These buds cut off from the leaves and develop into new plants when they fall on the soil.
Thus the correct answer is option D.
