I just looked at the roots of my lemon button fern. š¶ Apparently, it was grown in some kind of fabric. Not fabric with soilājust fabric all the way through. I did my best to break it away without doing too much damage, but I doubt this one will recover.
Grrrr! š I hate it when they do that. Makes me question if mine are in same situation. I wish a horticulturist would jump in explain this! (Other than they want to sell plants).
1 like Yes, I think theyāre avoiding customer churn. ā¹ļø I took a look at my gardenia bonsaiās roots, as well, and it was the same thing. Thatās not the way to grow a bonsai. I think sheās a bit better off, though.

Whoaah what?? I have never even heard of such. That is so weird, Ill definitely check the medium of the next plant I buy!!
1 like Iāve only had her for about two months and she just started to give up after about a month. So Iām really hoping sheāll pull through now Iāve freed her roots. š¤š¼

Ugh I call those death plugs. I hate them! Sometimes I even find ones made of thick plastic that are so hard to cut through without damaging the poor plant! But if I leave them, the plant eventually dies of root rot or suffocating roots
