To address root rot, start by removing the plant from its pot and trimming away any black, mushy roots. Allow the healthy roots to air dry before repotting in fresh, well-draining soil. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage holes. Going forward, water your Philodendron Lemon Lime only when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, and avoid letting the pot sit in standing water. Monitoring soil moisture before watering can prevent recurrence.

If the infection is severe, applying a fungicide or bactericide, as appropriate, following the manufacturer's instructions, can help. Ensure your Philodendron Lemon Lime receives adequate light and avoid over-fertilization to keep it healthy.
