plant is reached, then the main stem rots and in time the plant will die 
if not removed from the pot and rerooted. 
The early symptoms of crown rot are easily identified by the wilted 
appearance of the plant. If not gone too far the plant can be saved by 
washing off all the soil and removing all the brown, rotted matter, even 
if only a small stub remains which shows clean tissue. This can be re- 
rooted by placing it in damp sand, water or Vermiculite. In about five 
weeks a good root system should be formed. When well rooted, repot 
the plant in good clean well balanced soil and take care of it in the pro- 
per manner.
