iIam trying to identify a plant

by mary

I have a variegated curly leafed plant that keeps dropping its leaves. The leaves are red and brownish green oblong and they don't seem to like water or dryness. I am watching the leaves fall off to the point that i have two naked stalks. Some of the leaves look like they have leaves coming off of them. I'd like to know what it is and how to care for it. I believe it may be a house plant but do not know for sure.
