I bought this Adenium several years ago and may have messed it up. I'm thinking it has some kind of rot, but I don't know.
2 things may have contributed to the problem:
1. I had read somewhere that it was best to prune during growing season, I may have done it late or maybe followed bad advice. I pruned it around the beginning of August.
2. I live in Houston and accidentally forgot about it outside when we had about a week or 2 of rain almost every day after I had pruned it about a week or two before.
I was worried about root rot, so I brought it in and haven't watered it since, that was probably about a month ago. Most of the leaves turned brown and fell off. It started to get some sprouts close to one of the pruned areas but quickly lost those as well. Some of the stems also started to become soft and squishy and you can see the wrinkles in them on the pics I've included.
Please forgive me for the lack of weeding in the pot, I kept up with doing it when it was outside before I brought it in. But when I was worried about the root rot, I figured the weeds would sucks up the excess moisture in the pot and help the adenium.
Any ideas on what to do? Please understand I'm an inexperienced brown thumb, so detailed instructions in layman's terms are appreciated. Thanks
