Why stem plants don't develop strong roots. I am annoyed by having to replant stems often as they come off the substrate easily, besides growing tall forever and generate ugly aerial roots.
Epiphytes develop strong grabbing roots to hold on to rock and fallen wood, and rosette plants develop deep roots to anchor deep into substrate to prevent washing away from flood events. What are typical growing conditions of stem plants in their natural environment that prevent them from developing strong roots.
