Rootless Catt's, how to use Kelpak Female
Default

I have sometimes been able to secure a rootless plant with 3 stakes (at the edges of the pot) and wires or twist ties to each one. Once all 3 lines are under tension, they can hold the plant pretty well. I have also used a piece of heavy wire, heat up the end and shove it through the plastic pot at the level of the rhizome, then pull the wire through to the other side, heat it again and poke it through, then bend the wire on both sides of the pot to secure it. If positioned right so that it holds the rhizome firmly, works pretty well.
