Default Stem plant Problem

Okay ta, they looked great when I mail ordered them last week but my chain
sword, wisteria, and now my pennywort have roots coming out from everywhere,
should i try to just cut off the root nodes towards the top of the plant.

That's what (aquatic) stem plants do and, so far as I've ever heard,

others, though. The trick is to place the plants and prune them in such a
manner as to hide, disguise or - better yet - make the most of the

tendency.

My stem plants are growing roots out from all the fronds and is making

PMDD
injection, any advice on how to stop this from happening.
