Received this plant as a gift a couple years ago. I think it falls under a 'succulent'. It's thick leaves are like petals of a rose, it does not flower, it is beautiful green and has a stem that reminds me, somewhat of a type of palm. It has produced several offspring, attached under the leaves and in between growths of the large rose shaped leaves. I would attach some pics, but I'm a 'newie' as of tonight. Once I figure that out or get some instructions, I'll post the pics. Thanks everyone!!
