A plant that both trails and climbs it rarely blooms indoors. Its leathery oval leaves grow so closely that they nearly obscure the brownish stems.

I like this opinion

Just picked it up today and I can't get over how very cool and interesting it is. I hope to have it for many many yrs so I can watch it grow.
