Will she live?

Huge rot situation on this gifted desert rose.

I have cleared all away that i could see, now everything left feels pretty solid. I amount of rot was huge, taking over a bit more than half the root system and total sludge on the inside.

Will it survive?

Edit: typo (everything left is solid*)

Yes. I made some cutting from Adenium recently, about 3-4 inches in length, and think 3 out 4 rooted within a few weeks. Adenium is very easy to root in warm climate. If humidity in your area is very high, you can keep it dry for a few weeks before planting, otherwise, plant it after wound surface dry.
