Back in July this plant was severely overwatered while I was on a two week vacation. It just hasn’t bounced back at all. Any suggestions on how to revive? Or is she a goner?

    Have you looked at the roots and cut off anything that's rotten or dead?

    It probably has root rot. Maybe look into propagating it if the roots aren’t saveable

    I have the same issue with a couple of my ppp’s :( I got one that was kept in super soggy soil & was already starting to drop leaves. It had 5 babies/sisters around it & only 2 of them survived because the root rot was so bad. What I did with one of them after I repotted it was take it back out to look at the roots, I pulled off all the brown soggy roots- leaving very dainty stringy roots like hairs. Then sprayed the roots with a mix of 3:1 water and hydrogen peroxide, let it sit out for about an hour or so, and repotted it soil I just misted. It helps to tie it up to something as well to keep from sagging too badly. I like to wrap bamboo skewers in twine or hemp, and use these lil Velcro strips- I got like a pack of 10 from temu (soft side touching the plant). Also, make sure you have it out in the open in good air circulation, away from walls/corners or other objects. Maybe on a table near a vent, or place a fan nearby. This helps a lot to keep moisture and humidity off! Hope this helps!

      Thanks for the information. I am going to definitely check the roots out.
