Ok so I brought this plant around 4 months ago, there was no name and all it said on it was "Common House Plant".
It has long thin stems which have tiny little barbs on it suggesting it's a creeper.
It does not like direct sunlight and it needs little water to survive.
Its leaves are long and thin and the stems can be very brittle.
That's all I really know about it.
Thanks.
Any idea? ( photo / image / picture from embas's Garden )

It looks like a cyperus. Which one I'm not sure. Cyperus alternifolius is very similar to it. Some of the common names are: Umbrella Plant, Umbrella Papyrus, Umbrella Palm.

It could be a ficus alii. But I think alii tends to have thicker trunks. It could be a ficus.
On a second look though, I'm pretty sure it's a cyperus, just a very young one by the looks of the pic. Looks lovely so far.
