It may produce a new leaf rosette in the spring but if the caudex is getting
soft and mushy, you should throw it out.

Last summer, we had a ponytail/elephant foot palm on the deck. Someone or
something pulled the top out of it. The top was laying on the deck. Now
the
plant is inside the house, and not doing too good.
There is no new growth coming out of the top, and the growth that is there
is
not looking good.
The other one that suffered no damage outside is doing great!
Is there anything that can be done for the sick one, or should it be
pitched?
