The only plant that I
could come up with a name similar to ‘tiger claw’ is Tiger’s Jaw -- Faucaria
tigrina, a succulent short stemmed plant with teeth along the margin of the
leaves. I can’t imagine this plant having that many roots wrapped around the
outside of the pot. Lift up or lightly cut whatever is wrapping around the pot,
and lift up the plant. If it appears that they are roots, it is not going to
hurt to have some cut back. If the roots inside the pot are packed in as well,
cut them back or at least trim some off to reduce the root-bound effect. Then
repot in either the same size container with fresh soil, or a slightly larger
pot.
I am desperate!! I
have a ‘tiger claw’ plant that I need repotting advice. The pot is wrapped in
what could be roots. Any advice?
