    Can anyone identify this houseplant? I've had it for a number of years; it was a gift from my Mother, but I don't know what it is.
    Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

    Has it ever bloomed for you? and Does it have a big bulbous root?
    I am likely to be wildly wrong, but your plant resembles Adenium obesum.
    Looks vigorous!

    Small photograph, so hard to tell, but looks more like Euphorbia leuconeura to me.
