Reviving a Lopsided Schefflera (Likely Dracaena)

A 5-foot plant with three canes—only one leafed out—sits 15 feet from a north window in a 14-inch pot with weekly watering. Description matches Dracaena massangeana (corn plant), not Schefflera. The large pot and low light likely killed two canes.

Action Plan

Send a photo for ID. If Dracaena, downsize pot, move closer to light, water when top inch dries. Prune dead canes. New growth emerges below cuts on the living cane.
