Try washing the roots but it depends on the plant if you’ll be able to salvage them

This is what I was able to salvage, do you think there’s hope?

It’s a calathea medallion

They look rather sad but it couldn’t hurt giving them a chance to grow, try potting them

#### Chloe respondió el 2025-03-26

Thanks so much for your help! Crossing my fingers!

I would say if there is no mushy roots and the base of the plant is not mushy you might have a chance.

Don’t forget a light peroxide water bath for them!
