Wilfred;Melissa et al, can anyone advise exactly how to go about trimming the roots of an adenium? I looked at a few links Melissa provided but it's still not clear. Is it possible to trim the tops and the roots on the same day;then hang it in the shade for a month or so. Or, should the roots be trimmed first, rest it (how long?) then trim the top and rest again? I think it was Mr Ko who suggests a 60 day period letting it hang in the shade.
