I hope I am correct here, starting a new subject.
I need some advice.
Bought a Catt. Amethystoglossa (huge) and it has about 6 new pb as well as several old ones with good leaves. The creamy roots are all crowded on top of the pot, winding themselves around and around the rim of the pot, tightly. When I unpotted it, the roots on top looked like a matted cap and under these roots, the middle of the cap was mushy roots. I cleaned them away and am now left with the roots that are tightly wound around the base of the pbs .
I hope I am explaining this clearly.
How do I repot? Just put all the good roots matted cap(roots) and all, into a new basket and put media on top covering the mat of roots or elevate them to the original height and add the media beneath?
Why are there no new green root tips, but it has several new shoots? Isn't this the time to repot (spring) ?
If I repot now will it just decline and die like others have done on me? Repotting just seems to kill some of them.
Any advice appreciated.
I live in Miami, Zone 10.
Thanks
