Default Succulent ID?

This beautiful and unusual bloom was produced by a plant growing near a local Orchid nursery greenhouse. After mentioning my admiration for the bloom, the owner described it as a succulent. He was kind enough to give me a cutting. Is anyone familiar with this succulent?

You're absolutely right Ron. I did some Google searches and this appears to be a Kelanchoe Pinnata, otherwise known as Cathedral Bells or life plant. The blooms are supposed to last for weeks, but these haven't reached maturity and probably won't because they've been cut from the mother plant.
