Very cool plant
I have no clue about those plants- but I was wondering about that new growth: looking at the size of the old ones, will the new growth have enough room to grow? I would have tried to cut the pot above the new growth, making sure it had enough space to develop normally

Dont know when these are best to repot, wait till after blooming maybe.

Definitely wait until after it has flowered. Be prepared to carefully cut the mesh basket away, to avoid damaging roots and new growth.
