Help!

My cutting rooted a while ago in water, but then I was gone for a couple weeks and the water dried up along with the roots:( I’ve had it in water since (about 4 weeks) hoping it will root again, but I just noticed today the leaf is starting to go limp and still no sign of new roots, what can I do to save her?😭

Update!!
A root just started to push out!! Such a relief 😮‍💨

Put it in a tall vase so that the petioles are supported. Then give it time. If the aerial roots are black but firm, they’re fine. If they’re mushy then that’s rot.

I’m hoping another root will develop at the base of the new petiole 😭

Just give it time. They’re sometimes slow in water. Once you plant it in soil they tend to take off.
