Depends on how big they are. I've found that the pots I have where there are more than one plant (of the same kind/species/hybrid/whatever), they stay happier.

Okay, I'll keep them together, they are pretty close too!
Thanks a lot!

Good luck! And don't worry- you're not the only one on the fence about repotting. I have a recently acquired phal. stuartiana with a spike that's about 3 weeks from blooming, and I still haven't made up my mind.

I feel like I almost bond with my plants, they just are important to me... You know what I mean!
I think I have made the right decison, the moss just smells so terrible I'd hate "her" to get root rot. I call it a her because I am deticating my love and care to this plant for my baby girl, I'm 35w due may 10th and on partial bed rest.

I would leave them together, if for no other reason than when the two bloom it'll create a nicer show.

Wow! Good luck, and I expect photos of the baby as soon as you have them.

Will do, as soon as I have photos of her! My AT&T Internet is still down but I will post photos of my orchids in thier new pot whenever it's back up! They only suffered minor root rot on the very tips of some of the roots

My baby is 24 years old but I learned not to acquire any new pets, or plants while pregnant. That nurturing instinct is SO strong- my husband felt it, too.
