# I have a polkadot plant that is already lost two of its stems and now…

I have a polkadot plant that is already lost two of its stems and now it’s leaning over the side. Do you think it’s dead? Or is there something I could do to save it? I moved it to a brighter spot.

Definitely not dead. Being in a brighter spot will perk it up soon. Once its doing a little better you can start pinching it back just a little at a time and it will fill in more.
