We’re talking about the orchid, which, especially in recent times, has become a best-selling plant of all time, along with others that have become a must-have in nurseries, but not everyone knows how to care for them properly.
This plant often develops very strong roots, and some of them tend to grow out of the pot in which we place our plant, which is why we tend to prune them.
Although it may not look the prettiest at first, you need to be careful what you do, because cutting off these roots, called aerial roots, can damage the plant and prevent it from flowering.
Otherwise, you need to take these aerial roots and place them in a tray filled with water next to your plant and wait until they become strong and resilient before proceeding.
