Disturbing Angraecum Roots. Male
Default Disturbing Angraecum Roots.

Hello all,

I recently acquired an Angraecum alabaster.

It is doing fine so far however, I noticed the pot was not draining well. I checked the bottom of the pot and found that a piece of styrofoam was completely obstructing a few of the drainage holes.

To remedy this problem, I took a skewer and shifted and broke up/dug out some of the obstructive foam.

While doing so, the bark and plant did move a bit within the pot. It also possible that I touched some roots with the skewer but I do not think so.

My question is whether or not this skewer intrusion into the pot will have bothered the plant?

I have always heard that Angraecums hate to have their roots disturbed and the plant/roots did move in the pot slightly.

Should I be concerned? Or is it more likely the plant was not disturbed by this much at all and will be perfectly fine.
