I'm not sure how to update my information, but I live in Middle River, Maryland. I still have small roots on my catt. I left them on so that the plan can sit up on the moss and to rest its rhisome in a little trench left in the moss. I can't tell if the roots I've left are alive. They are thick and firm, but not green. I can try potting it again with a bag on top of it if this sounds like a good isea. All pb's have plumbed up but the leaves remain wrinkled. So the question is, should I cut the rest of the roots off and leave it in the bag, cut the roots and pot it rootless covering it with a bag, or pot it with roots as is. It seems very complicated but I really want it to live. Thank you all for the advice. Please keep it coming until I'm able to come to a conclusion.
