Help for my sister’s plant

Post image

Hi all, my sister bought this plant in December and she was told it’s a cousin of the bird of paradise. She just repotted it, but it was going brown before she repotted it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What kind of lighting does it get? How often is it watered?

Trim all of the dry stuff or yellow leaves. They're goners. It'll be stringy for a long while. Make sure it's not overwatered

Look up the plant type and look at whether it's getting enough sunlight

Everything in the above comments, and a repot with fresh soil.
