Yessss a South facing window will be great for her. She needs to be repotted and in a nursery pot 2in bigger then the root ball. That way hopefully she'll have babies!!

Oh - (Considering your south side is in the northern hemisphere)

Tips ! Make sure not to overwater as they are very prone to root rot also make sure they are in good chunky soil (I use cactus and succulent mix) also they love sun ! Just make sure not to keep them in direct sunlight for a long time ! They grow better when they are left alone !
