Default cymbidium division

"Pam Moore" wrote

I've discovered that my cymbidium has split its plastic pot.
Is now a good time to divide and repot?
If not, when?
Or just put it in a bigger pot?
It's in my living room. No greenhouse, no other place for it in
winter.
Having had 2 flower stems this year after 15 years waiting I don't
want to stop it doing the same next year.


Personally I'd use a bigger pot if you have room, they always look better
and seem to grow/flower better the bigger they are.
I haven't taken mine in yet, they are still out in the garden as the more
cool nights they get without frost the better. Noticed that at least one of
the standard cymbids has flower spikes growing already.
