Just bought this orchid earlier today. Should I repot it because it’s outgrowing its pot? It looks to be expanding the pot a little bit due to the amount of roots. I don’t really know how I would repot it though, because it’s two different orchids in one.
I unpot them to check for a foam plugs, and remove it.

0개 좋아요 It's a foam piece that is often just under the crown that they are planted into. It'll really just depend on what it looks like after you upot, if you separate them to their own pots, or the refit back in

It’s not going to hurt them to stay in that pot for a few weeks and let them adjust to their new environment in your home.

Agreed. Repotting while in bloom can cause the flowers to drop.
