Hi all! I just bought a little umbrella plant and it’s in need of a repotting. It has roots coming out of the drainage holes, but I’m not sure if it would be too stressed since it’s winter here.

Do I wait until the Spring to repot or do it now?

I repot when the plant needs it, I’ve never had an issue

if the plant is an indoor plant, i haven’t found that the season makes much of a difference unless it’s a seasonal plant.

Agreed

I would repot so it has more room to grow, as they grow slower in winter
