My schefflera plant Lovera is dying and I don't know what to do. I had her for 7 years and I may have over watered her when going on vacation off and on for 2 months. Majority of the leaves fell, and the leaves were droopy. But I took her to a garden house and they said she was under watered and needed a smaller pot. When I gave her a smaller pot and fertilized her... replaced her and watered her. Her seems to be getting worse. Now the branches are getting soft. The water is not drying and they are starting to turn yellow.

I don't know if I should prune and cut what I can into a nursery or try to dry the soils, repot with dry soil and leave the original soil to the bottom. I'm so worried for her cause i grew her from a toddler.

Let her dry completely and water less or bottom watering is great for people who overwater, don’t worry I’m one of these people

I took it out. There was a lot of root rot. So I cut all the dead roots off and sprayed a Neem mix to it as well as propagate the top leaves to save her both ways. We'll see how it goes from there.
