# I recently brought my plant home from college to take care over…

_Mo님이 2025-01-26에 게시함_

I recently brought my plant home from college to take care over winter break. Unfortunately I forgot it at home and I don’t think my family watered it properly (1-2 weeks). Also, it had a hard journey back because of the freezing temps in the car (leaves were cold to touch)

Now the leaves feel thin and flimsy and are much more brown.

How do I save my plant? Do I just have to wait it out and keep watering? Below are pics of right now and before this all happened

All the leaves are both frost bitten and too dry. Cut it into sections with at least 2 nodes per cutting since the stem looks green. Leave 2 nodes on the main plant. Check the roots. Hopefully, the roots can still put out new growth on the main plant.

Propagate the cuttings in water. Fertilize when the roots come out in a week or two. Change the water when it gets cloudy. 🍀🪴
