Lazarus
I don't normally give my plants names - heck, I hardly even talk to them at all when I'm sober - but if I was going to call this one something, I would name it "Lazarus."
I transplanted it into a small pot and brought it inside at the end of summer so that we could have fresh chives through the winter. I know that I traumatized its roots pretty good when I repotted it, but chives tend to be pretty hardy.
At first, it seemed to be doing fine. After a couple weeks of inactivity, while it figure out its new paradigm, it sent up a tentative new shoot.
Then it stalled.
Over the course of the ensuing weeks and months, it did nothing but slowly wither and dry up. If it had been a cartoon plant, this is the point where it would have flopped onto its back with Xs for eyes, and clutched a lily to its stem.
Most rational people would have given up on it a long time ago, but against all odds, it still seemed to be drinking, even if it wasn't otherwise showing signs of life, so I kept faithfully watering it every other day and feeding it every month or so.
Then, a couple of days ago, it suddenly did this.
