Help with repotting !!

Monzi zone 8a South Carolina

15 years ago

We had a storm and the wind blew my two pots of clivia over and smashed the pots to bits. I wasn't going to repot yet as one is an older one with seed pods on it and the other is a pot of year old seedlings.My question is ..since I have to repot should I put the older one in the same size pot( it blooms like crazy)or move it up one size? The seedlings(5) were all stuck in the same pot,I was lazy when I recieved them.They have grown quite a lot .Should I now separate them and put them in their own pots and if so what size ?They are about 8 inches high and have 6-8 leaves each.Thanks for any advice.

Hi Monzi, what did you do with the seedlings? I've seen excellent 'clumps' of plants with their babies, but I am curious about different plants growing together.

Well I repotted the little ones (one to a pot ) and they are doing well.The older one is still in a state of neglect but it had the best bloom ever...tall and full. Where is everyone???
