One unusual Kalanchoe is K. marnieriana. The leaves are rounder than usual, the stalks longer and thinner, and the plant grows roots along its length, allowing it to lie on the ground and creep across to new places to live.
It was sold as a ground cover, in a flat. I grew it in a pot and wasn't impressed but this year it seems to have settled down and filled the pot nicely. It will get long and leggy (as Kalanchoes tend to do) but it's easy to cut it back and it starts again from the rootstock.
One resource is Gardenia.net.
