Anyone got any ideas what this plant is? I took this one in from a friend and it really isn’t to happy. If I knew what it was I’d do better lol.

Very easy to care for :) I let mine dry out all the way then give it a good watering! Try to not cover the stem as much as you can! They can get pretty quite top heavy so if Mine is (has been!) Prune it back a bit on the stem area where the soil Isnt Touching any foliage to prevent Rotting!
