Identification: please identify my dying plant!

Hi. I got this plant from a friend and don't know what kind it is and i am trying to take care of it and it is dying! any help would be great.

thanks!

 

Photo is not clear. is it a Pereskia species?

 

Maybe you're treating it as an indoor plant when it would prefer being outdoors! It looks not inconsistent with a rhododendron (leaves in pseudowhorls), but there are other possibilities.

 

(I moved this to the Indoor Plants ID forum from the How to Use the Forums section - if it is normally outdoors, though, let me know and I'll shift it into the Plant ID forum)

 

I think it's a Pachira aquatica, but without a better picture, I can't say that it isn't a Schefflera arboricola. Could you take one with the plant against a white bkgrnd facing into the light?

 

The leaves are simple, not compound, so Schefflera isn't on the menu

 

Nor is Pachira, for the same reason.
