If you suspect that the roots have started to rot, then smell them.


I removed one of the shrubs to look at the roots (the cpmpost was still
losse from my repotting operation). The roots seem absolutely fine. There
is no sign of any rot at all; they all seem crisp and pale in colour, as
you would expect a healthy root to look.
