    I have a house plant I need help identifying. I've tried looking it up on line with no luck. I've come here for some help!

    Attached are 2 pictures of the plant. One from further away and the other up close.

    Thanks for any help I can get :)

    Thanks!! :) Now I can hopefully keep it from dying on me. She was looking pretty wilted. I had it placed inside by a window. Looks like I might be able to move it outside to get more direct sunlight and heat. If you have any suggestions on the best way to keep it growing healthy, I'd love the advice!!

    Thanks so much!!!
