Kalanchoe tubiflora - Air plant.
Kalanchoe tubiflora grows up on the slopes of dry Hawaiian ridges. Its not native to the islands but a recent introduction. It's an amazing plant because of its ability to produce 'baby' plants through buds off the leaves. In the lower photograph here you can see the small buds forming off the top succulent leaves. As you walk by these readily come off and fall do the ground.
