Littlebabybird, I have this plant if you want some wee babies? I think it's name begins with B?

Sounds  similar to the stuff I put in my husbands tea  ;)

Or Mexican Hat Plant?

Kalanchoe was the first thing that came to my mind.

Wow yes i had one to and had forgotten about it :) I got good at growing them and we had them all over the house. ;D

i gave one to everyone on my junior school class when we went up to seniors
(i was a strange child)

No that's not strange, people use to give me plants when i was a kid. I brought allsorts home........i think the mother in laws tongue was the last straw ;D

ok, I have a few of these, so let me know if others want one/some  :)

Is there an outdoor version?  I have been looking for similar plant at local nurseries with no luck.

I believe they can grow in gaps on walls etc :)

Spingbokgirlie...do you mean these?
