I just realized that I have one that came in a basket of plants that we got 5 yrs ago when my MIL passed away. It has the thick, variegated green/cream colored leaves.

I always thought the leaves were neat looking but didn't have a clue as to what type of plant it was. Just dawned on me what it was when I was watering the plant next to it, lol.

So now I have two!

I put it in a bright but not direct sunlight area. The ivy plant loves this area, so I figured the orchid would too. I have had it for over a month. This week the flowers started to die, but there is 2 left right now.

The question is -- would it be okay to repot it now(zone 5)? The plant is in a small cup which is lined with a heavy, clear plastic cup. When I checked the roots (just lifted it up out of cup) they are really packed in there. I read on another thread that it is best to wait till spring. However, I am concerned that if I wait till spring it may be too late. I am sure by then the roots will be up & out of the pot. Actually, I am surprised they aren't already. That's how big & tightly packed they are.

Thanks for any replies & any other advice you can give me on this plant.
