I wanted to post a picture of it. Unfortunately, I do not have access
to a camera right now.

Anyway, I did a google search on "Tradescantia sillamontana". I looked
at the pictures, and that is in fact what this plant is.

Thanks to everyone for your help.

You didn't give any details at all. Description of the leaf shape and

flowers are not details. You should describe everything you see.You
had any
sense, you would know that. So don't get so snotty, numbnutz.

Otherwise, you should post a picture of it.

You probably have something very common like a Tradescantia of some
sort.
Maybe Tradescantia sillamontana. Try doing a Google search under that
name.

If the plant is growing vine-like, it is getting enough too much
water and
not enough light.

I realize my description of the plant may have missed some important
details. However, it was no less helpful than your sarcastic reply.

I am not a gardener or a botanist, so I do not know what
characteristics of the plant would be most useful in trying to
identify
it. However, if you let me know what information you need, I will
do my
best to find it for you.

The leaves are almond-shaped with a single point. The plant
currently
has no flowers, so I cannot describe them.

Perhaps someone with some maturity and patience would care to help
me?

Thank You,

Matt

Sorry, cannot ID your plant based on your detailed description.

You are obviously aware that all plants have the same shaped
leaves
and
flowers and any further info on them couldn't possible be helpful.

Hello, everyone.

I was given a houseplant several months ago, and I have not been
able
to identify what it is. I was wondering if someone on this forum
could
help?

It appears to be some sort of vine. The vines are reddish-brown
in
color, with staggered green leaves. The entire plant is covered
in
a
white, silky hair. It also occasionally has small pink flowers.
It
doesn't seem to require a lot of water or sunlight.

Thanks,

Matt
