Clew your plant looks like a Kalanchoe - common name Flaming Katy.

I agree with the others, the leaves look like a Kalanchoe. I have added more information (the information on the card for the plant that I have, Kalanchoe blossfeldiana) in the plant section. Mine however hasn't started blooming yet and the blooms look more like mini roses.

Some of mine looks like that but grow outside and winter it is in the green house.If a leaf falls off put it in dirt and it will grow another plant.

This plant is native to madagascar. You are so lucky that yours has flowers. I've had one for two years and I haven't got a flower yet.

I have one of these too. Very pretty plant - but hates over watering!
