Hi Karen, whenever I've accidentally over watered something I've always repotted it, that seems to help a lot, or you could try setting it in a REALLY warm and sunny spot.
remove the saucer from bottom and set it up on something so the bottom has air circulation don't block any drainage holes if it is not rainy set it outside not in sun you'll burn it(unless it's use to being in the sun) it's already struggling so don't recommend repotting just give it some time to recover remove any rotting leaves.if the soil seems compacted try to aerate it some by using a fork to turn the soil and loosen it up just don't damage the roots.you can add some dryer soil to the soil in pot as you turn it with the fork. if it's rotting then may need to remove from pot clean off bottom of each plant piece removing rotted roots/leaves then replant into pot with added dry soil into soil then leave it be dry dry dry so it can try to regrow new roots. Sansevieria/Snake plant/Mother In-Laws tongue need watered less than 1x month(only when completely dry),kept root bound,in shallow/wide clay pot,very bright light,water soluble fertilizer 2x year(like Miracle grow)hope you can save it I have 7 varieties I love these plants
Thanks so much, I hope I can save it too. Have a great weekend!
Trim off rotting . Plant in New potting soil. Water only when dirt feels dry. It Will take awhile place in indirect sun.
