Ann,

I have a plant quite similar to what you describe....it is a common =
succulent, my mom calls it a Kalanchoe. My plant book says its latin =
name is B. daigremontianum, and calls it Devil's Backbone. Perhaps this =
is your strange mystery plant?

Hope this helps, =20

That's what I thought of at first, but the Kalanchoe has little
plantlets instead of seed. Could be what Ann was thinking of, though. We
used to call it a 'Mexican Hat Plant', probably because the plantlets
looked like little sombreros.

Sounds like a great project though.
