Help please. What’s going on here? Both sections are leaning over to separate sides. Are we in need of a repot? Are there two separate plants here? Should I separate them? Had this one for four years and never repotted. Thanks so much.

    It’s probably overgrown roots pushing the plants out. Repot them to refresh the soil and you will be able to separate them into two. The small one looks like a side shoot. The small one can go in a 6 inch pot. The larger one can go in a 6 inch or 8 inch pot because of its size. Both plants look great.👍 😁

    What do the roots look like? It might just be leaning to get more sun too.

    Thanks so much! I pulled out the plant to take a look at the roots and it came away in two straight away for I’ve reported separately. My first time reporting anything. Fingers crossed they survive the shock

      Honestly most plants transition nicely just make sure the soil isn’t dry underneath the top layer. Sometimes when repotting the soil on top is wet but underneath is dry

    I think it has to mush water, also I agree with Sunny. Repot it.
