unwilting

Never losing vitality

Unwilting describes something that doesn't wilt—that stays firm, fresh, or upright when wilting might be expected.

Most often used figuratively for resolve or spirit that remains strong under pressure: her unwilting determination, an unwilting optimism despite setbacks.

Literally, it might describe flowers or plants that hold up well: The unwilting bouquet lasted two weeks.
