Default Help Identifying Houseplant

My grandmother gave me a start of a plant several years ago, but never
knew what it was. It is small, doesn't have leaves, doesn't bloom,
and slowly spreads on its own. To make a new plant, just cut a few 1"
pieces off and stick them in soil.

I took three pictures that somebody can hopefully identify:

Thanks!



Sorry I don't have an answer, but I'm interested to see what others
have to say. At first I thought it looked like a Stepelia which
produces a stinky (5 petal) star-shaped flower. All green plants
produce a flower or cone, so your plant will probably flower if given
ideal conditions. The flower really helps the identity. Nice
pictures, BTW.
