What to do about root rot in the poison bulb (Crinum lily)? Here's how to treat it correctly
If the roots of the poison bulb (Crinum lily) have already rotted, it is difficult to cure, and it is mostly caused by watering too frequently or fertilizing too much. If only a small amount has rotted, you can tip it out, shake the soil loose, cut away the rotted parts and some of the leaves, then dry it in a dry, ventilated place, protecting it from rain and damp. After about 3 days, replant it in previously sterilized loam or sandy soil and it can be cared for normally.
