Could anybody please identify this plant for me? I rescued it from a friend who had let it dry out completely. I cut off all the dead leaves, gave it a good watering and this is what it looks like now. From the thickness and leatheriness of the leaves, it looks like a succulent but whether it flowers or not I don't know.

Looks like some kind of Kalanchoe - nice and healthy now. If I can remember where I've put my houseplant book, I'll look it up, but am damned if I can find it at the moment.

If it is a Kalanchoe it should eventually flower again, it could be red, pink, yellow, mauve......pot luck really! Try some tomato food to persuade it to flower.
