Oh yeah, you'll show her! I'm sure most 'non-banana' people are of the thinking that if the leaves look wilted, it's dead. Little do they know bananas are the bad-asses of the plant world! They will come back from most anything! That's actually how I got my first bananas. The roots/corm from a plant that was deemed 'dead' at a local greenhouse was thrown into a compost pile where I worked at the time. And it grew up into about 7 plants. Dead?? YEAH RIGHT!
I'm sure you're super bummed to see your beautiful IC a little 'under the weather' (I guess literally and figuratively
), but don't worry...it will come out of it and be just fine! Be sure to give that neighbor some bananas in a few months!!
