Uprooted
The roots have been pulled. They needed to plant her into a new place because her roots had grown too large to fit in the old pot. They searched, but there weren’t many places she could survive so finally they planted her somewhere they thought was nice. She did well there for a while but the scientists saw that she was wilting, and that she needed a new environment fast. But they waited. They slowly pulled the other plants around her, and each one took a small part of her roots. Then they tried to pull her, but she was stuck. Even with the little amount of root she had she still held on. Eventually the scientists got her out of the ground and put her back in the pot for a while. But again she soon grew too big for it. So the scientists planted her in a new place. This time she wasn’t near any other plants. She didn’t wilt this time, but her color was off. She was supposed to be a vibrant green but she was closer to a yellowy green. But even then she was surviving, and the scientists didn’t worry about her anymore.
