A quick question, I have a new Calathea that is in need of re-potting. The roots are growing out of the bottom and the pot just seems way to small.

Can I re-pot at this time of year or should I wait it out until next spring?

Indoor temp is still around 70F. Humidity 50%

Thanks all

DS

Thanks again Tina for identifying this plant for me...

If it is going to continue to stay indoors, you can certainly repot it now. And should if the roots are coming out of the current pot.

Thank you Tina and Bill... I thought I could, but I am far from an expert and would hate to kill off such a new addition to the apartment...
