I'm caring for this plant for a friend; but am not sure what it is. It looked worse when I got it yesterday; it's perked up a bit after fertilizer and water. Is it a low-light plant?
Thanks for any response!

This looks like a philidendron
I believe it is a peace lily and does not take a lot of special care.
This plant has some information about the general care on a ThjriftyFun link.

Looks like my peace lily is at the moment. Wilted. They like water and warm but not hot places. I have had mine for 13 years and they do pop back up once you give them a drink. I never fertilized mine and it seems happy. Once you give it some water, it should be fine and your friend will not know it had the wilt. It likes low to moderate light. If it does get a few yellow leaves, you should cut the off with a sharp scissors. It will be fine! Take care! Happy plant sitting.
Thank you, everyone!!! I'll check out the forum; I'm sure it is a peace lily now; it is looking much better; and I'm slowly trimming off the brown or dead leaves.
Yes that is a peace lily. Just add water. It will pop right back. I never fertilize mine and it is huge. I trim off yellowed leaves and I keep inside in winter and outside in summer time. Peace lilies need to be repotted every two years to a bigger pot. I never put mine in full sun outside and it is not picky about certain amounts of sun inside. I have had mine for more years than I know. And started new ones from it that are thriving well. Plenty of water and replant into bigger pot every two years. The wilt will pop back up after watering. It is a hardy plant. Not finicky so it is actually hard to kill one. Or mine would have died years ago. Add water and it will be fine.
This is a peace lily plant. There are many types of Peace Lily but the one in the photo probably is Peace Lily Supreme.
I think your plant is drying out because lack of watering. Just add some water and it will bounce back beautifully. You can have some additional care information here www.poliagarden.com/
