hello,
onset of puberty doesn't mean halt of height ..
girls or boys tend to grow up to age of 19-21..
give her a proper diet which includes balanced amount of PROTEINS carbohydrates and vitamins..
indulging in physical activities like jogging swimming games or simple walking will make her grow naturally..don't worry
if you feel she has a stunted growth visit a doctor for further evaluation..

hope my answer helps you
if you have any more queries i would be happy to answer..
I find this answer helpful
