I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO BRING MY PLANT BACK TO LIFE? IT WAS LEFT OUTSIDE IN FREEZING TEMPS AND NOW THE LEAVES ARE LIMP. IS THERE SOMETHING I CAN BUY TO BRING IT BACK TO LIFE?

Hi!

esconsult1 answered a similar question on this site. He said:

Not much you can really do.

From experience with my own rubber plant:

1. Do not remove the leaves yourself. Let them drop off
2 Do not cut the stem of the plant

Just leave it all, and it will recover. Removing the leaves will expose the internals of the bark. The new shoots actually come out just above where the leaves are attached to the stem, so removing the leaves will cause the new shoots to die.

Mine was severely frostbitten, but came back spectacularly in about 3 months.

Hope that helps!
