# HELP! I've had this plant going on 3 years and I still have no idea…

_Posted by Rose on 2024-07-14_

HELP!  
I've had this plant going on 3 years and I still have no idea what it is it's flowering so I'm hoping someone will know! It's a vine-like. Has root-like strings coming from it.

Google doesn't know and planta doesn't either :/

it’s just reaching for light, no flowers. the strings are roots! i would pluck the leaf clusters off and put them on top of the soil and get this more light 😊 good luck!

That's what I thought so every year I take the leaves off and plant it further down but it just repeats the process. It's in direct sun 8 hrs a day. Water it whenever I water my cacti and mist it weekly

Also!!! It does reach towards the light but never goes straight up always and I mean always ends up more viney. - regardless of grow light, sun light, water or feetilizer
