Hey gang, nice site here! New to
plant care here and I have a question.
I have recently repaired a
plant in hopes of rejuvenating it. I pruned and cut away dead leaves and leaf material. I don't know what it is. Right now it's only a few inches tall and has many little stalk like leaves that protrude from the center. Lot of little leaves. Could be a viny type of
plant.
Anyway, I decided to replant it in a larger pot while I was fixing it up. I noticed that the roots, although not unhealthy, have wrapped many, many times around the bottom of the pot at the inside edges. Weird looking. Now I went ahead and replanted it anyway since I had everything ready to go. Did I do the right thing? The structure of roots was so wrapped around I didn't know what to do in fear of doing the wrong thing. Can I cut away the exessive root structure? Will the
plant take if I do that. I fear that the massive roots will cause something bad at some point.
It's not that this is an important
plant, just a learning experience. Thanks in advance for any responses.
