Survived root rot and now has pups!

T. vanhyningii was split into 2 pieces post rot last year in August. It now has a pup on what I believe is the top portion of the plant. The bottom portion is still alive but not growing or doing anything.

T. Stricta (emerald? I'm not sure) also suffered rot in August. I thought maybe it's growing new leaves in the crown? I think it's growing a whole pup inside itself hahaha

So for the victims of root rot let there be hope!
