I bought this plant for 1/2 price due to its grave condition and I am unsure of what to do right now. I have read some of the threads relating to repotting but I think I need to do more than just that with this mess! Such a beautiful plant and I so want to save as much as I am able but as a BEGINNER, I am at a loss!

I do not have a garden and I want to use containers and leave it in my home. I have areas of bright light and a room that gets direct sunlight in the afternoon. The only soil I have, right now, is Miracle Grow Moisture Control.

The leaves look great but they fall off if you touch or bump them and I am assuming the trunk just fell over at some point....notice the picture of stem (trunk?) all by itself.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!!
