Default Unknown Plant Can Anyone help ?

Hi I was walking down the road a couple of years ago and i saw that someone had thrown out a dead plant. I was looking mostly at the pot it was in to see if i could use it. Anyway i noticed that the top of the plant was still green so i chopped it off and took it home to see if it would root. It did and it grew to a decent size then started to wither again so i chopped off the top again scrapped the rest of the plant rooted the cutting and it grew again. But this time (And considering that it's early Dec) it's started to split at the top and a load of really sticky buds have appeared as if overnight. I looked closely at it and it's literally dripping with tons of sticky sweet tasting nectar. This hasn't happened before and I'm starting to wonder what kind of plant starts budding and dripping nectar despite the British Winter. I live in an apartment block 4 floors up & i don't have a garden so it sits in my living room window I'm gonna put a couple of links to pictures I've just taken of this plant and would be extremely grateful if someone could tell me what the plant is called.

On a similar topic,
I've also succeeded in growing an Orange Bush from seeds in a clementine orange i was eating a couple of years ago and it's doing quite well does anyone know how old an orange bush has to be before it will flower and produce fruit ?

If anyone can help identify the Unknown plant then please let me know. I have searched google images and found nothing that looks like this plant.
