# I had a snake plant that had been knocked over and hadn’t been…

_Posted by Chris on 2024-05-08_

I had a snake plant that had been knocked over and hadn’t been watered for an extended period of time. Like 4 months… anyway I cut all the dead dry leaves off and basically stripped it to nothing. And I repotted the plant. It is starting to grow but I’m wondering how likely it would be for it to fully heal.

Snake plants are resilient

I hear snake plants thrive on neglect, so I think your doing good
