Rhaphidaphora Hayi- my first shingling plant!

Well I didn’t take this Rhaphy out of its pot for awhile. Honestly I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with it.

But today I finally figured it out. I wrapped up this piece of wood in some twine so the aerial roots have something to grab onto and actually potted him down probably about an inch into a very well draining soil.

In his original pot the soil looked ready to be watered but I’m really glad I held off because the whole bottom of the pot was still wet. There was no aeration and this plant hasn’t developed very big roots yet.

So anyway I hope he’s happy now, I’ve also got him under better light. I’m just glad he was patient enough to let me figure out what I wanted to do with him first. 😅
