I know what you mean! I had that issue once. And I had to develop a habit in order to address that sort of thing ----- by - just from automatic habit now - using my 'select all' text feature just prior to hitting the 'submit reply' button. Or - on a desktop MS Windows computer - the CTRL-A and CTRL-C to copy all typed text to computer memory. Just in case.

As for the mass of roots. For the winter time - allow the roots to dry up - or - at least not to become 'soggy'. In the tropics, and some other places, growers of this sort of plant know that some roots actually stay alive during the 'dormancy' period.

In the wild, there is nobody to cut the roots off. So under 'suitable' conditions, the plants won't get wiped out with roots still on the plant.

The main thing is - in cold climate areas - or very cold climate ----- avoid wet plus cold (- avoid relatively cold and wet).
