Default Orchid questions

Pam Moore wrote:
I have an orchid (cymbidium) which has not flowered for at least 10
years, but is huge. I hardly ever feed and then it's orchid feed.
It is about to split its pot and needs dividing.
Questions;
1. Is now a good time to do it?
2. What sort of pot is recommended? clear plastic, dark plastic,
or terra cotta?


You may want to ignore me totally, since I have successfuly kille all of my
cymbidiums, but I believe it's one which likes its roots to have light, so a
clear pot is recommended.
