Hi I was given this plant for my desk at work. I have no idea what it is - however it is very easy to maintain and has had many positive comments. (I tried searching the net and found this site.) Can anyone identify this plant - Does it flower? (I have never seen it flower.) What is it and should I being doing anything to keep it healthy. I have had it for almost a year - other than water- and pick off the dead leaves, I have not done anything with it and it still looks good. I have two pictures - if you need more pictures or details - please ask.

HI - I am starting a new plant -from the leaves. I will post and let you know when it is ready for shipment. If you make arrangements and this works the plant is yours. Wendy
