My silver dragon is very happy and pushing a new leaf. She’s got roots coming from the pot - do I repot or just try to take her out of the pot and place the roots back in? I feel like she’s got more room in the pot for roots.

    Wow she’s doing great, very pretty! I do not know enough to provide advice, but perhaps a cautionary tale. Mine looked like yours and so I up-potted her. She freaked out, dropped all of her leaves and went dormant for about 6 months. Held onto her in the hopes of a comeback, moved her outside this summer and she’s bounced back. Wishing you good luck whatever you do!

    Alocasias don’t mind being root bound a bit. I wouldn’t repot yet - mostly cause you gotta be ready for it to throw a fit. 😅. Also, trimming the roots that are growing out the bottom also won’t hurt a health plant. Yours looks VERY happy!!!

      Oh that’s a good idea! Does it hurt if I leave them out though?

      Nope - won’t hurt them to leave them alone either
