Question

Brocchinia reducta.   Allexperts,

I have a question about whether i should repot the    Brocchinia Reducta that I got from you guys.    the roots of the plant are beginning to  come thru the pot. Would there be any adverse effects, if I left the plant in its current pot?   


Sincerely,

Weylin

Answer
Hi Weylin,

Brocchinia is fine being root-bound in a pot.  We've found however, it affects the overall size of the plant.  Smaller pots, smaller plants.  If you want to transplant it, it is fine.  These guys are pretty tough.  I roughed one up pretty bad doing a divison when we did the volume #3 DVD, and we didn't loose a single plant.

Good Growing!
