After doing some research I have come to the conclusion that this houseplant is the weeping fig tree. These plants can either be grown outdoors or indoors. When they are outdoors, they can grow very tall and get plenty of water. When they are gown indoors things get a little trickier for the plants to stay alive. You have to make sure it gets enough sunlight, has the right temperature to survive as well as get plenty of water. Being in Wilmington the water has multiple chemicals that the plant is not used to and is unable to process them leaving the plant not being able to distribute the water properly through the plant. So in this picture the leaves are turning brown due to the lack to proper water amount and excess chemicals staying in the plant.
