Can this be saved?

Moving something else i fell into this - tbh it was looking at breaking anyway.

 

Looks like a yucca maybe?
If so, it will regrow from the root next summer.
And you could use the broken off piece as a cutting and root it if you want to.

 

ok thank you - hopefully it will regrow from the root (or whats left) - as for the main bit that snapped off (we calling it the cutting) - just put it in the ground / compost?

 

Well, leave it to dry off a bit, a couple of weeks or so, kind of form a callus on the broken part.

Then best to insert the stem in some gritty compost in a pot, in a greenhouse if you can or a warm sheltered part of the garden, it should root by next summer.

 

The 'cutting' can be chucked into a gritty compost....or just grit/pea shingle or sand. A lot of the time I've had them send out roots where they fell(were kicked off after having stabbed me)
