Yesterday I noticed one of my flaming Katy had some soggy leaves that were falling off and I looked closer and realized it had some dark spots on the stem. I took off all the soggy mushy stuff and the flowers that were over, I just left one stem of flowers that still look ok. I’m really worried about it and I thought it was root rot. I ordered new soil that’s being delivered Monday, so I can repot it and cut off the rotted roots, also this is the original soil and pot. I got the plant about a month ago from the grocery store. I looked at it again today and I don’t know if it’s root rot now. The black spot is hard, the whole Main stem and everything is hard and the dark spots where the leaves I took off yesterday are hard and crispy, also the soil is really dry. I have four other flaming Katy’s I’ve had for awhile and they are all doing really well, I haven’t treated this one any different then those ones, so I don’t know what I did wrong to this one or if something happened to it before I bought it. Does anyone have any idea what’s wrong with it?
