I found this plant in Puerto Rico that looks similar to a succulent, or a Mother of thousands plant. I'm not sure what it really is, so I've been treating it as I do with my aloe and other desert/tropic plants. They are very cool/unique plants, and I was curious if you were able to identify them and help me better figure out how to take care of them. Thank you!
Sorry disregard this thread, I have created a new question that should better help find the answer.
I found these two plants in Puerto Rico. They appear to me as a succulent type plant, or look similar to an alligator leaf plant but without the leaf 'pups.' I'm not exactly sure what they are but Ive been taking care of them similar to how I take care of my Aloe and other Desert-tropic plants. Any help at all would be appreciated. I have attached 4 images as well! Thanks.
These spotted succulents are kalanchoes.

Thank you shelley. I'm pretty happy I was able to describe it as an alligator leaf plant/succulent as it seems that is exactly what this type of kalanchoe is! Looks like I know my plants better than I thought. Thanks again for your help.
When the flowers die off on a kalanchoe plant, do you clip them off just under the head?
If they are the little individual florets, yes, just pinch them off when they fade.
If the entire flower head is spent, cut down the entire stem.

Please identify this plant. It loves the heat and now has many babies. I believe it is some type of succulent. Thank you.
This looks like a mother-of-thousands plant, which is of the Kalanchoe genus. They are generally hardy in zones 9-11, so you would need to grow it in a container to over winter indoors.
This plant needs good drainage and is best potted in a commercial cactus soil mix, though if using standard potting soil, sand can be added. Locate the plant in bright, but indirect, light for several hours per day. It will benefit from spending the summer outside, just make sure to introduce it to the outside atmosphere gradually and begin their outdoor stay with limited morning sun. Too much direct sunlight may cause leaves to become sunburned. Remember to move the plant back inside before outdoor temperatures drop to the 40 degree F. range.
This is a friend of mines and it has sentimental meaning. Of course, it didn't come with a Name Tag to help us identify the plant.
This is a Kalanchoe plant.

I have a Kalanchoe daigremontiana it has just flowered. All the leaves have died, what do I do?
Unfortunately, Mother Of A Thousands plant dies after flowering.
The little time plants that lined the edges of the leaves become the next generations of plant.

I don't know what kind of plant this is and would like to find out so I can try to figure out why the leaves are yellowing. Help with that would also be wonderful! Please feel free to contact me for any additional information. Thanks!
You have a Kalanchoe plant. The yellowing leaves can indicate a watering issue; too much or too little.
