I know there’s a variety of plants called “money plant” I usually see pilea, jade plant, and Pachira aquatica called this, but this plant in the picture looks like a schefflera (umbrella tto me, they prefer to dry out more between waterings. If the leaves are yellowing before dropping that’s my guess. If they’re crisping my guesses would be maybe it’s not humid enough or too cold? Some of my tropical plants freaked out recently as the air got dryer and the temperatures got colder.

Thanks Allison. You are correct it is a schefflera. Sorry. I had a solid green one grew great in the same location, but this one not so much. I will use your advice. Thanks🪴😻
