Hey everyone,

I have an Umbrella plant that desperately needs help. For my part, I got it about 3.5 years ago and it's been pretty much ignored and neglected for the past 1.5ish years (my fault). I got it from my grandmother and it means a lot to me so I am hoping not all is lost.

I've attached some photos (including two before pics for reference; the first two are how it looked when I got it, the last four are how it looks now ). I live in Florida so it never sees snow but I brought it inside when temps got down to around 35-40 degrees recently. The pot it is in has dimensions as follows: 11.5in diameter, 8in tall.

I have been perusing some stuff online but quite frankly I don't know what is good info and what is not. Nothing is really making sense and it is very overwhelming. Repot? Don't re-pot? If re-potting, how big of a pot? And it seems like there are 8,000 different re-potting processes.

Thank you in advance for any thoughts/insight. Where you see it in these pics is where it probably gets most light in the evening (none before that).
