The heroes of our article know that plants sometimes need as much care as pets. And it seems that they can turn any withered and lifeless plant into a luxuriant, blooming bush. We are sure you can also revive even hopelessly withered plants with the proper care.

“I picked this guy up from Walmart a few weeks ago. From dull and dry, to shiny and hydrated!”

“I rescued it from the trash 2.5 years ago. Now it’s nearly outgrowing my apartment.”

“I adopted this sad jade plant from a coworker. Look at it now, less than 6 months later!”

“I rescued it from my dad’s house.”

“A friend gave up on this yucca plant and gifted it to me. It got so big and spikey I had to move it out of the living room!”

“I rescued this little guy, and he’s thriving now!”

“I found this guy underneath the discount table at Walmart. The cashier asked me why I was buying a dead plant. This is how it looked 15 hours later.”

“I brought this guy back from the brink!”

“Before I realized it was a jade, I thought it was dead. Today, it’s my favorite plant by far.”

“I stuck it outside on my balcony, it’s in a protected spot away from the wind and in bright shade. It’s in a reasonably sized terracotta pot, I drench it with the hose once a week. That’s it. I never fussed over it because I never really liked them that much, so I didn’t care if it lived or died. Harsh, I know, but it seems to be working.” © jennabenna11 / Reddit
