I need some help. I’ve tried looking it up but nothing seems quite right. I inherited this spunky guy from my aunt, who was a heavy smoker and didn’t care for them really well toward the end. The “limbs” on this are all crazy and curly and the leaves are long and flexible, not hard or spikey. They are mostly green with small strips of a reddish color around the outside of the leaves.
