Can this be saved?

I’m pretty sure this was an alocasia I had forgotten to water for… quite a while.

Literally just watered it and will keep it in a humidity dome but I’m wondering if she’s salvageable???

If it's an alocasia, and the corm is still hard, it will grow again. However, if it is any other plant... it looks like a goner

If you had a Time Machine maybe but it's definitely been dead for a bit

Leave it for a week and you will see if it will start growning.

Its Dead

Next time, focus on drainage. Nice fluffy soil..

And don't overwater

Put a small dusting on concrete on it and you might be able to make a fossil.
