Hello. Is it just some roots around the edge or major root damage, like you dropped the root ball and it broke in half. If its around the edge don't worry about it and will only be a few days before the plant starts growing again. If its a major root break it could be 7 to10 days before it starts growing again. You could buy a transplant shock food such as Regen-A-Root or Rhizotonic. That will help. Good Luck. Chuck.
