All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Hey, I have a neglected plant I'm trying to revive, any tips or is it too far gone?

Not too late. Clip off the spindly bits. Two options: cut into a few sections, it turn in water until they root then replant. Or, cut it into sections where there is a node in each section. Lay the sections flat across the Silk with the node facing down. Water lightly - like with a spray bottle every day until the nodes root and leaf. You can put cinnamon on the cut ends which acts like a fungicide. It you can find root growth hormone I find it helps jumpstart the rooting.
Good luck!
