Came back from my week away to find my calathea completely dead, it’s had a steady watering schedule (every two weeks) for the past 4 months. Is there any way I can get it back

Some of the stems are still green so I’d water it and hope for the best.

I agree, it doesn’t look completely dead! I’d keep watering regardless and it should come back or at least give you new growth if you decide to cut it! Also, humidity and fertilizer should help it recover!

OMG!! 😭😭💔💔 I'm soooo incredibly SORRY! Please don't tell me that's a Pinstripe Calathea! They are soooo sensitive! I have 2 of those Divas right NOW! Ones surly, but gorgeous leaves, so I try to just respect her space. My OTHER Diva... never knows WHAT she wants! Some leaves unfurl beautifully...others start to brown before they're even unfurl! Same plant 🪴 I swear she's Bipolar y'all. But man, if that's a Pinstripe... you HAVE to cut the dead leaves- there never coming back. \& then check her roots. Something catastrophic happened- ur answer should be in the roots. IF they are all not rotten, clean them, then soak them in a mild hydrogen peroxide mix for a couple hours before repotting and starting again my friend. I'm soooo sorry. I know just how devastating this is. 🤗💔 Hang in there
