Default Who is this hitchhiker? (Succulent)

I bought this pot of aeonium (kiwi?? I asked the seller about the name and she did not know. She called all plants she sold succulent ) at a farmer's market a couple of weeks ago.

I already have one pot of the same thing from TJ, but that one turned green, and this new one looked so cute.

Well, this new one is also losing its pretty color.

Anyways, I now see that there is one other plant growing in the same pot.
Can you spot it??
Do you know what this might be?? it looks sort of like Kalanchoe, but not sure.

Definitely Kalanchoe. The pups from my daigremonti look like that while small.

The thing is this guy has some greyish powder like substance on the surface.
I thought Kalanchoe had waxy green surface.
Well, I guess I'll find out when it flowers eventually.

If it isn't Kalanchoe daigremontiana (Bryophyllum daigremontianum) then it is Bryophyllum pinnatum or some other similar species. Flowers or more mature leaves would make it easier to be specific, but definitely a Bryophyllum.

Thank you for the input.

I'll keep my eyes on it as it develops further.

That is called Kalanchoe delagoensis. Each of those new growth at the tip of the leaves are new ones. I would remove that Kalanchoe and repot separately. it can easily overrun your container, grows like a weed.

Ooops, my mistake...looking at the scalloped leaves..it maybe a Kalanchoe fedtschenkoi..just the same the smaller new growth at the tips are the babies.

It looks like a mother of millions plant. They are nice specimens but can get weedy if not controlled as the little plantlets will reproduce easily.

If the green scalloped leaves becomes speckled later on then it is Kalanchoe marmorata.
