I’m not sure what to do. Please help! It rained a lot while I was gone for the day and a lot of water was just sitting. I dumped out a lot of the water and created another hole at the bottom of the pot. I cut off a lot of the dead flowers already and leaves. I will cut off that flower. I have watered it a few times because it’s been in the 90s. I’m not sure exactly if I should take it out and repot it, or what. Please help me!!!

    Replace the pot and the soil. Check for and remove root rot. Use a pot with lots of drainage holes. Reduce the pot size to be 1” or 2” wider than the root ball as in the picture. Use potting mix made fir house plants with lots of perlite, orchid bark chips, etc., that supports good drainage. 🪴🍀
