Hywel. The leaves are on a stem about 12 ins with leaves with (seeds/proliferations) around the edges. The flower head is at the top of the stem. I would be pleased if you are able to identify.

Bryophyllum daigremontiana was its former name and I used it a lot at school to show natural asexual reproduction.
I used to give each pupil 'a baby' and let them grow it on and I used to give a prize to the best specimen.
