If you water the Desert Rose too much, stop watering in time, put the flower pot on the ground to make the water holes at the bottom of the pot empty, and place the plant in a cool and ventilated place to evaporate the water in the soil as soon as possible. When the water is serious, take the plant out of the pot with the soil and place it in a cool and ventilated place to evaporate the water in the soil quickly.
