I think they are a kalanchoe, possibly Kalanchoe mangini, which I know as Red Bells. If it is what i think it is, it will quickly and easily grow into a nice looking plant that doesn't get too big. For me, here in south central Texas, it blooms in late fall/early winter and adds a nice bit of color to the back porch.

Are these leaves really small? I think it is Sedum spurium (could have a cultivar name).

Looks like sedum. Goes in the garden.
