ShadyGreenThumb said:Your very last attempt would be taking a sharp knife and cut the rot off then let the clean end dry (in A/C of your home) for a week. Then try to root the remaining end in perlite-no watering. I have tried this with a 3" cutting. I had no luck but always worth a try to save your souvenir.

I wasn't brave enough to cut anything off, just tested with a pin like others suggested and the sap was white. So... I got a rooting hormone and a perlite/soil mix and planted my cutting into a plastic bottle. it seems to be happy and you could clearly see new leaves forming. I haven't seen any signs of roots yet but I am excited it may survive! With the fall weather coming, any suggestions on when to bring it inside of the house?
