# I just got a new plant from meijer after my old one died due to…

_Publié par Gena le 2024-03-26_

I just got a new plant from meijer after my old one died due to dryness (I wasn’t home for a week and my brother turned the heat up way too high), and I got a corn plant (not literally), and when I went to repot it due to overgrowth of the roots, I noticed orange roots, but the plant is thriving. Does anyone know why the roots are orange? And how I can help it?

Thank you
