Default old sick banana

thought this might be of interest to some.This small sickly plant came from a new friend who learned of my hobby. She said this plant has been in her office for twelve or fifteen years and always looks the same.Well there were hardly any roots and it could not support itself,maybe I will be able to revive it. So how long can these things live and will it ever be able to come back after years of struggling sorry about the bum pic.

sure it will come right out of it. It's not really all that bad looking all things considered.

Yeah, I'm sure you can bring it around without a problem! I'm most surprised by the fact that she's had it 12-15 years and it hasn't grown much. My plants look significantly larger in 12-15 DAYS! Hmmmm.....interesting.

Shade it initially if needed and treat it kindly - it will repay you massively.
