# I rescued this plant from a grocery store last summer and let me tell…

_Publicado por Liz el 2025-04-19_

I rescued this plant from a grocery store last summer and let me tell you, even after repotting it to a proper sized pot it has been STRUGGLING. I almost gave up on it, thinking it’ll never grow and it was doomed from the beginning. But look at what I found today! New growth! I guess I did something right for this little guy 😂🩷

I love this. I give struggling plants lots of light and a good soil mix hoping they bounce back

I was going to ask if its a silver sword... I as well have a silver sword grocery store rescue that has me going insane! The most tempermental, hard to read and keep happy. Just as I want to give up she throws new growth. They're so pretty!! But oh so frustrating! 🤣
