# Got this albo a week ago severely root bound and the aerial roots…

_Posted by Hana on 2025-06-09_

Got this albo a week ago severely root bound and the aerial roots were all over the place! She also had fungus gnats. Cut her out of her old pot, freshly repotted this lovely lady, gave her a neem spray down to shine up and protect her leaves, and watered with gnat death drops. AND she gets a moss pole!! Back in quarantine she goes, but she looks much happier!

Absolutely gorgeous!

I have the same moss pole!! I'm thinking about changing it though as the aerial roots cannot really grow "into" it as it's just wrapped around a metal stake thing, but gorgeous plant!! 😍
