What is this plant? My husband attended a banquet today and these were used for the decoration. Apparently the sponsors didn't want them back because he came home with 3 of them. I love the color and lushness. Is it Kalanchoe?

buds! I figured it out--every night when I lowered the roman shade it went down behind the plant except for one branch that was always behind the shade. From that I found out that the kalanchoe must have complete darkness for a certain time in order to bloom. The light over our kitchen sink stayed on all the time so it never bloomed.(Some things are learned the hard way.)
