Hi Harvey, if the roots are rotting, how about some hydrogen peroxide?
I bought a TC RajaPuri & Siam Ruby 2 1/2 months ago in 2 inch pots. I potted them in 5 inch pots & put them in my west bay window. S. R. lost leaves w/ color but grew 4 healthy green leaves (not enough sun for color) as did R.P. I know the top of sill is cold & room is 66-68* w/ 30% humidity but they are doing fine. I water very little - enough to keep from drying. I will put them in a lrg zip lock with a towel under for protection from the cold sill & they should take off (after reading what you wrote). It will give them a good start for spring.
Just letting you know mine are doing fine even though I was MEAN to them compared to you LOL.
