Hey Plant Fam, not sure what happened with the blue chalk stick (I think it was sun or water or both), but either way does she have any hope or is this the end of the line?

I always say if there is any alive green on the plant then it's worth trying to save it. Cut all the brown dead stuff out and put it in some good light and hope for the best 👌

Ok then! I'll give it a shot, thanks 🙏

You can definitely still save it!!! I’d keep the best healed of the plant and cut up the other half and try to propitiate it. I’ve propagated this kind of plant before and it’s relatively easy.just get a leaf or leaf and small stem, let it dry for a day then place the bottom part in water. It will take a bit but even if the main plant dies you will still have a mini plant.

That's great advice, thank you!!
