Do I need to repot her?

What problems are you having with her, drooping?

### Monicakay commented on 2023-09-29

I just want to make sure. I've had her for 20 years. She's been divided and gifted. I brought her back from a styrofoam cup. So I'm extra protective.  
I almost lost her 6 months ago and had to deep clean and repot.

I would, but yes. Be very careful.

Repot if the roots look pot bound or several roots are coming out the drain holes. Spider plant roots are thick and sturdy. They should be fine.
