This is my fiddleleaf fig I found on the side of the road.

In the beginning I put it outside and it grew 6 new leaves then all of a sudden they died off and it went back to being sticks.

I decided to chop the stems off and move it indoors to a sunny spot.

Do you guys think this plant has hope and any tips to getting it to grow again?

Honestly I would just keep it in that location and water it when needed and see if anything comes out of it. Fiddle leafs are divas beyond divas. So I am curious if it will bounce back. Also fiddle leafs hate being moved around therefore they let you know it in dramatic ways
