I just bought this arrowhead plant yesterday, I’m new to all of this and I heard arrows are an easy beginner plant. I just watered it just now by taking off the white pot and watering it, I noticed some roots growing out of the bottom of the actual plastic pot it’s holding the roots in under the white pot, I looked it up and it said yes and to repot it in a slightly bigger pot, does anyone have suggestions on what pot to use and how to repot it?
I have a neon pink arrow head and she's in a self watering planter because she drinks alot. She grows very quick and I have repotted her 4 times in just as many months.
I have her in half orchid half all purpose soil. Hope this helps.

don't repot yet. it needs to adjust to your home first. if you shock it hard enough you'll kill it. give it a few days

Funny, always a controversy as to whether to repot right away or not. I always do. I figure they're already shaken up from coming from the store to your house so just get it over with. Haven't had any problems yet. 40+ plants later. I would put it in a clear plastic pot one or 2 inches bigger than the one it's in now so you can keep an eye on the roots. They do like to be snug in their pots and they are thirsty plants but be careful not to overwater.
