# Hello 👋 Can someone tell me if my poinsettia plant is still alive?…

_Geplaatst door Caissa op 2025-07-10_

Hello 👋 Can someone tell me if my poinsettia plant is still alive? And if it's still worth keeping? In the spring, it sprouted lots of green leaves, but in the summer, it turned like this. I've already sprayed it with insecticide and put it inside next to the window, but I don't know what else to do.

Check the roots for signs of life. The stems look dead.

I check the roots today and one is still alive. The other R.I.P. so, what should I do with the one that is still alive?

You can only wait to see if the branch puts out a new leaf.
