    I received this plant about 6 months ago as a gift. Unfortunately it has not done very well under my care. It has dropped leaves and grown spindly. It originally had more yellow in the leaves and the leaves twisted a bit. It was repotted today. I'm hoping to identify it so I figure out how to care for it properly.

    Thanks for your help!

    Not sure but it appears to be one of the many cultivars of Codiaeum variegatum, Croton.
