Jen, that is how mine looked, just a stem. Try potting it in well draining soil, cut off any dead or soft rotten parts. lay it sideways about an inch into the top and press down, put some light wires over the stem to hold it down. don't over water, make sure no bugs on leaves , it will be fine. I started mine out in a blue plastic show caddy tub with a handle, after adding rocks to the bottom. That thing has slits already in the bottom. Mist the stem and leaves with fine spray ntil you see an areal root. Keep misting ( I mist once a day)
I hope this plant works for you. That is how I did this one, not the cheese cake, but it is the same method. I can't find the pics in the blue shower caddy, they might be on the tropical forum a couple years ago.. I moved older pics to a flash drive.
