# I love this plant immensely, but it was drowning from being…

I love this plant immensely, but it was drowning from being accidentally overwatered. I reported it but it has still been deteriorating significantly. Is it too far gone or is there still a chance to save it?

I think it will recover, might just take a few months. Just stick to a regular watering schedule when dry (don’t swing extreme other way by drying it out for a lot longer than you normally would since that would cause rot).
