| Plants can wilt as a result of not being watered frequently enough or from damaged roots sometimes caused by watering too often. |

| If the wilting is the result of the soil being too dry, water the soil thoroughly with a sprinkling can. Use warm water (room temperature) since this penetrates the soil better. |

| If the soil resists watering, place the plant–pot and all–in a container of warm water a few inches deep. Leave it in this container for a few hours to ensure that the soil is thoroughly saturated. Then remove the pot and let it drain. |

| If the soil is damp and the plant is still wilted, the roots are probably damaged. In this case, place two stakes at least a few inches taller than the plant in the pot. |

| Next, cover the plant with a plastic bag, securing the bottom of the bag with a rubber band. Put the plant in a spot that gets bright, diffused light without direct sunlight. This will create a space with very high humidity that will help the plant develop new roots. Leave it is this bag until the leaves regain their stiffness. |
