I've had this plant for years and I'm thinking it looks like a short mother in laws tongue, but don't really know what it's called. It produces babies, but I haven't separated them in a while because I think the one I did take off died. If anyone knows what it's called, that would be great! Thanks! http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o204/Breeanabanana/IMG_0054.jpg

I've had one like this for several years, and believe it to be Sansevieria "Trifasciata Hahnii", a compact "bird's nest", a variety of what is sometimes called mother-in-laws tongue or snake plant. Mine has tolerated a very wide range of conditions, including underwatering, but can't stand to be overwatered. Looks like yours may need a little tlc, maybe a tad more water. Likes bright light, but not direct light. You can find lots more info about them online in searching by "birds nest sansevieria.
