they were gonna throw out this plastic plant at my work but I said I’d try to save it, I’m pretty sure it’s severely overwatered but I’m unsure… I would seriously appreciate any thoughts or advice on what I can do (or if there’s anything I can do, lol)

If you think it’s overwatered, take it out of the soil and check the roots. Trim off any root rot, clean the roots, and repot it in fresh potting mix in a clean pot. Take it easy on the watering because you’ll have trimmed off some roots and it doesn’t have any leaves so it’s was to overwater. And I’d let it sit in bright indirect sunlight for at least 8 hours a day for three or four months. You can also pop it under a grow light. Grow lights seem to be what bring all my rescue plants back. 💚

Thank you so much!! I’ll find a grow light :)

After three to four months you should see some little sprouts coming up. It’s pretty awesome!

If the roots and stem are still good you can notch the stem above the nodes to encourage it to branch.
