Gardening: Mystery beauty

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?

If your tomato plant seems to be losing its flowers without making fruit, try tapping the flower clusters with a pencil

twice each day. Tomatoes don't need bees for pollination, just vibration to shake the pollen around on hot, humid days.

    area. I made a nature walk path through my woodland with pinned down landscape fabric with rocks and filled in the path with cedar chips. Then along path I added in some more top soil here and there and planted white and light colored impatients to give me a splash and color as I stroll the pathway. Bleeding hearts also add nice color in the spring and lovey greenery during the summer.
