Hello, happy and blessed day to all my dear gardening friends here in the Hive community. I hope all is well.
.
Today I want to talk to you about a topic that we as gardeners should be very interested in, since we must take this into account for the health of our plants. So here is some information that I hope will be very valuable to you.
Roots are the first organ to develop when a seed we plant germinates, and their functions are to Absorb nutrients and water from the soil Support the plant Store the energy it absorbs from fertilizers
.
Roots grow downward as if seeking the soil; they have no leaves or nodes between them; they grow together, but they don't tangle; they are a true spectacle, as you can see in these photographs.
Remember that the roots I'm showing you are from a species called Zamioculca or Millionaire's Plant, which is an ornamental plant that we can keep indoors without any problem. With proper care, it thrives. Drawbacks.
Some plants, like mangroves or malangas, have aerial roots, creating a true spectacle when we see them.
.
Today I was working on a transplant of this species, and I was truly delighted to see how well its roots developed. This ensures healthy, well-sized plants.
