The wind knocked my 1784 Glasier over and it broke its stem. Its not completely broken, is there anyway the plant can recover?

Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

Is it already in the ground?

Sprinkle some Mykos over the area, careful cover the broken stem with soil, and water a little. Also, use stakes to help hold the plant in place from the wind. The something happened to me with my 1513 Sherwood. The stem was half way broken due to a strong southern wind. The plant is recovering and starting to grow a vine, but it is growing slower than my 1916 Barron due to the stem incident.
