should I trim the stem?
Default

wonderful tips so far! Thank you, Right now the plant is bare with no flowers , I just trimmed it to the node. :edit: One of the stems was starting to get hard like an old wooden stick: So I trimmed it down to the fresh lively part..was this the right thing to do? I will replant this flower into a bigger pit with good drainage.

Right now it has 3 firm leaves but no sign of new leaves growing. When I replant I will keep a close eye on the roots.

Btw I lifted the clear plastic pot and I see a few roots starting to wrap around and sticking from the bottom holes. So I KNOW to replant it asap. Should I unwrap the roots or will it take care of that on its own?
