My prayer plant was very full and bloomed all summer.I accidently left it in a room that isn't well heated and it died back a lot.The plant needed to be re-potted but now it's a lot smaller,i was wondering about going ahead & taking it out of it's pot,removing dead growth & old soil.Then potting it up in new soil and trimming the roots back. Can the Maranta 'beauty kim' take this treatment.I do this to other plants but i've found the prayer plant to be a lil' touchy.

A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
