Hi - Please could anyone id this plant and advise how best to help it? There are some green leaves on top but a lot of dead leaves too. It's probably about 30cm tall. Tempted to give it a drastic haircut!
Thanks.

A good soak, and cut off anything dead.

No idea what it is but agree with above. It looks parched.
