I know my plant is in desperate need of repotting. I've repotted many plants, so don't need specific help in that area.
But here's the deal. It was a 'found' plant and has been in same pot for over a year now. It did not grow into tree-form, instead, there is one trunk about 4" out of dirt, at which point it branches off into 2 other main branches and then a 3rd one immediately branched off one of those.
Here's what confuses me. Where that 'fork' is (about 6" above soil) there are quite a few very established roots growing off the 'fork' and down into the dirt.
My question is - are exposed roots normal for this plant? If I were to try and cover them, I'd have to add about 6" of soil to the top of the plant which I did not think was a good idea.
So far this plant has grown quite well, even being rootbound and with these exposed roots.
Thanks so much,
