I have a spider plant baby that fell victim to my cats. I saved the nub to try and save it and it was very dormant. today i decided I want the pot it’s in for something else and I realized it’s still very much alive but ?? what’s up with these roots, what does it mean, will she ever get leaves?! had the nub since may

honestly i think if it has only grown roots the past three months there probably wasn’t enough stem left to grow any new leaves

I think it’s worth keeping! Might take a bit, but it should have new growth.
