If they looked like these I use them in my cloning box (aeroponics) to root cuttings in rockwool or expanded clay but I remove the plant before putting it in soil. Maybe the place you got your plants from just left them in the pots. I don't think it would have hurt the plant to remain in the pot because the roots easily grow into the soil. Here is a link that might be useful: net pots for hydroponics

They do look like those! I used to see them popping up all over my aquarium! But that's over 6 years ago and I don't have an aquarium anymore... Not sure how they got into my plants as I live in an apartment, also I can't seem to find them in the infested pot anymore...they just disappeared

I didn't know there was an insect forum, I'll try there too. I'm in MA, z7 I think, it's an indoor orchid kept on a shelf

Pam knows which zone I'm in and JC is marketed for zone 5. I sent her an email and asked her which root stock JC has. I don't believe she does the grafting. She gets these from the Austin nursery in Texas already grafted. I'll let you know what root stock it has when she replies. Here is what she said about all this in an email yesterday after I first told her I didn't want JC because it was grafted, then I changed my mind and said I would give it a try and sent that email out to her.. She grows all own root herself and preaches that own root is much better, she is also completely organic. So, here is her reply to me about grafting. " Well, that's funny as I was just going to send you a "lecture" on the benefits of grafted roses in SOME cases. Many roses are too weak and too slow and too hard to root from cuttings. Jubilee Celebration is a case in point. Although All rose societies say the opposite of what I am going to tell you, David Austin and ALL of EUROPE plants their budded (grafted) roses UNDER the soil with the intention that the SCION, the one on top WILL put down roots of it's own because it is allowed to be under the soil. We're talking 3-5 inches below the graft in cold climates (where the bud union tends to freeze and die) and 2-3 inches deep in warmer climates like mine. Within a year or two the graft will die away and the rose shoots out a whole new bunch of basal roots and Vualla! You now have an own root rose that started out large instead of puny! The best of both worlds. All of Europe and DA are not crazy. You even get less suckers and less disease. I have not tuned into Fraser's talks (maybe once) but Very few rosarians even know about this. It's really amazing. So that being said, feel good that all will be well and I will leave your name on one."
