Grandma's Nameless Plant - 'Who am I'

This is a plant that is very interesting. It is very hardy and reproduces very rapidly – the little leaf like structures on the ends of the leaf are actually little ‘Who am I’ plants that will grow into an adult plant.

One day my brother was really cheeky, and he gently dislodged the little seedlings from the mother plant and scattered them around the garden and in the other pots of flowers. A few weeks later we discovered to our delight (but grandma’s horror) that they were steadily growing and taking root!

Grandma's Nameless Plant - 'Who am I' belongs to the following groups:

    I honestly don’t know the name as it’s one of those plants I’ve only seen in my grandma’s garden! But it has a velvety feel to it – like the first part of your name! =)

    My sister in law used to have one of these, I’m sure it was known as a mexican hat plant….......I just googled it and I am correct it is a Mexican Hat plant (Kalanchoe daigremontiana). Lovely shot, nice clarity and detail
