I got this plant form my sister's house. She's really not a plant person, and she knew that I'd take care of it. There were some brown and some broken leaves that I had to get rid of, and I still have to repot it, but it looks lots better. Now I need to know what it is. I've seen it everywhere, but am not familiar enough with plant names to know what it is....Another question....She put the plant on a table next to a wall and never turned it. All the leaves are facing where the winow was, and it looks lopsided. If I put it outside for a while, with the "flat" side facing the sun, will the shape come back?
