Rescued this from my mums house, she moved to her holiday home and abandoned the poor thing! 🤪 it’s actually quite sentimental to us so I want to save it but as you can see it looks a little bit crazy. It had been getting limited light and no watering for quite some time. I have just moved it from a higher up shelf to this more lit up area in my hallway. Any tips appreciated.

it looks healthy, if a bit leggy. needs some more light, you could try propagating some of the longer branches back into the same pot if you want it to be bushier in the meantime
Yes very salvageable! You can chop and prop or just wrap the stems and lay them along the soil to make it look fuller. It should go into your sunniest window to give it as much sun as possible.
It looks fine. The new leaves grow at the ends and they’re all a healthy green. They drop the bottom leaves if you water too often, the bare stems could be a sign it used to be watered too often but then when you left it alone it grew new healthy leaves
You can cut off the ends, let them dry a few days and plant them. Keep them in a sunny spot and don’t water too often
