I have inherited a Scheff stump - literally a 12" stump with a few side stumps between 1 and 3" long - none seem long enough to cut off and grow by propagation. The stump seems to still be alive, i.e. it is has a brown papery covering over softer green woodiness. This poor plant also seems to be in soil which has been completely dried out. I'm planning on taking it home and repotting it in new soil. I suppose what I would like to know is whether it is likely that this plant will grow again as the main stem has been hacked off. Any suggestions on what to do to get this baby back on his feet would be appreciated. Thanks!
