No, I do not unless there is some reason to be concerned. If there are other iffy areas among the roots then I think it would be wise to hang it and let it dry a while. Now mind you I have less experience with adeniums than many of you here but with succulents and bonsai in general and I also give a spraying over with sulfur to deter fungal and bacterial issues. If in doubt, I wouldn't urge anyone to feel the need to toss out conventional wisdom and repot back up right away. I do, but then I also keep the soil a little on the dry side and treat the plant for repotting stress for a week or two of light watering and dappled sunlight until the plant settles back in. Obviously I'll need a few years to fine tune what works best for me but so far I haven't lost anything to rot aside from a few seedlings at first start. On the other hand I've only brought my adeniums through one winter thus far.

I'd probably hesitate a moment or two if the rose name evoked a negative reaction. And the marketers are aware of this. They don't want to have a namesake which most people would avoid. For example, years ago there was a cute lil' rose bush named after someone in the royal British family. "Fergie" to be exact. Welllll, soon after the introduction of that rose the real Fergie was photographed poolside while having her toes sucked by someone (not her husband). Needless to say this created a hubbub in the news and a somewhat negative association with the rose shrub. The marketers quickly changed the name of the shrub to "Sunseeker". That cracks me up every time I think of it. But while we have grown accustomed to the names of our roses, non-rose fanatics are simply unaware and my friends find it wildly amusing when I say something like, "That's George Burns! Isn't he looking good this year?" What IS in a name anyway? My last name is Butcher and it's prevented me from seeking employment as a baby sitter, veterinarian or even a medical examiner. But it is a great name for a hockey player.

Ionized, The fabric covered cords you've seen didn't have grounds either and had Bakelite ends. There are some great reviews on Amazon for $6,900 power cords, network cables, etc. They talk about how with the new network cable their computer downloaded the entire internet in minutes, their male pattern baldness was cured and on and on... Here is a link that might be useful: $6900 power cord.

A cake serving plate which I use also as a trivet. With last year's tomato crop. A gift from a close family friend to my late Mother, now passed on to me. Bpath, my Mom had a casserole dish JUST like that when I was growing up, although I think ours was olive green although maybe not. Can't forget that top!. I don't know what happened to it. I suspect it got chipped and ended up sold in a garage sale. I would love to have it now. I make a lot more casseroles than my Mom did. Dad hates most casseroles but my husband is not that picky. I remember Mom making scalloped potatoes in it.
