My aunt came back from a weekend trip and moved her bell pepper plant. Snapped off the stem above the first leaves.So she wanna know that it is an indoor plant will it continue to grow or is it done?

Thanks

As the plant broke above the first leaves there's still a good chance that it will grow again. I'd leave it and keep an eye on it and see how it does.

Yes, I agree with Eileen. It may very well come back.
Your aunt has nothing to loose by being patient. Wait and see.

I have broken them all the way to the ground and they come back !! If you put the plant outside in the sun it will not be so tender and break easily !!
