# I hope that this post will inspire fellow plant owners to not give up…

I hope that this post will inspire fellow plant owners to not give up on sickly plants. I had written off my Stromanthe Triostar when it died back. I was so convinced she wasn’t going to make it that I purchased a second one before the weather turned bad. It had one green stem. I watered it and tucked it into my grow tent. Today I have discovered that it has four new shoots poking out of the soil!

Life will fina a way. As scrappy as it is when they die back like that, it's kind of fun to watch them grow and develop from a tiny sprout. Hope it comes back bigger and better for you
