Rose of Jericho – The Resurrection Plant

The Rose of Jericho (Selaginella lepidophylla) is a truly unique and resilient plant, often called the "Resurrection Plant" due to its ability to survive extreme dehydration and come back to life with just a little water. In its dormant state, it appears as a dry, brown ball, but when placed in water, it unfurls into vibrant green fronds within hours—symbolizing renewal, resilience, and transformation.

How to Revive Your Rose of Jericho

1. Place in Water – Set the dry plant in a shallow dish of room-temperature water, ensuring only the roots are submerged.
2. Watch it Unfold – Within a few hours, the plant will begin to open and turn green. Full hydration may take up to 24 hours.
3. Change the Water – Refresh the water every 1-2 days to prevent stagnation and keep the plant healthy.
4. Give It Rest – After a week in water, remove the plant, let it dry completely for a few days to prevent root rot, and store it in a dry place until you wish to revive it again.
