Help! Chilean rose appears to be dying

I don't think the booklung would have caused too much of a problem as she has others. Althought if mites got in around that area they could cause some problems. Honestly now I dont think there is much you can do apart from give the water droplets every so often.

Is the substrate dry? If not, get her off the wet sub into something else with dry sub. That should aid in her recovery if she's still alive.

It is was previously watered down one edge about 3 days ago but the surface is very dry.

Ok good to know. Thanks again

She may recover and somehow get the vermiculite out.

I wonder if it would be possible to remove the piece of vermiculite with tweezers.

I'll have a look if it's possible, thanks

First, so sorry you have to go through this!
I am curious as well what the white stuff on her mouthparts is. It could be vermiculite, but it could also be nematodes. Is the white stuff moving?

Another care tip for future T's, there is no need to put a rock in the waterdish, especially not such a large one. T's don't drown.

The white stuff on her mouthparts was a speck of vermiculite I think. She doesn't have any mites as far as my eye can tell. I attach a close up pic taken this morning.
Thanks for the tip about the water dish.
