Snapped stem 15 days

[BigPurple]

So my temp/humidity meter fell on top of one of my younguns! Almost completely snapped, but I've tied her up so the stem is connected again. Is there any hope in your experiences?

They generally recover well and should be fine...pictures would help determine condition .

tape it together,works great.

^^^^ Agree

Many newer growers overly worry about accidental stress... 9 times out of 10, it isn't as bad as you originally think

yep, I have snapped completely off but a thread,put masking tape around,worked like a charm.

It would surprise you, canna is a much hardier plant than credit is given for....

As long as it isn't a complete snap off with no connection at all left then, re-positioning her, supporting the branch & dressing (all which you have done) is normally a 95% + success rate

Thanks guys.. she's looking pretty limp at the moment since yesterday, but the newest leaves are looking ok. Fingers crossed.

Tape it up, be fine. Remember it's a weed a hardy plant.

Well - I taped it up, very very carefully.. and all the larger leaves have wilted to the point I can't see them surviving. I'll give it a few more days..

If its been a couple days i dont know if it will now. All depends how badly broke and how long its been broke.
Should be taped up immediately.
Good luck
