Q.hens and chicks?
i don’t know the type I have. the leaves are thick and it is growing stalks that get longer and longer. had it two yrs, never has bloomed just grows and spreads. are the long stalks suppose to be cut?

Not seeing a photo of the "stalks" you're talking about, it's difficult to tell what it might be, but here are some articles about Hens & Chicks that might help you identify what you're growing:
