# Do you have a plant that you nearly killed and were able to revive?…

_Posted by NB on 2023-02-28_

Do you have a plant that you nearly killed and were able to revive? Well, IMO, an experience like this brings maximum satisfaction to a plant person. l'm so happy to share a picture of my Pilea cadierei also known as Aluminum plant.  
I'd nearly killed it by overwatering. It was left with stems that would rapidly shed leaves even the new ones. Thankfully, it still had healthy roots and I transferred it to a terracotta pot to help it survive. It seems to be happy now.💚🪴
