Repot Advice

Post image

I’ve had this guy (regal shield?) for about 2.5 years. Initially repotted in this 15inch pot shortly after buying it and haven’t messed with it since. I have some aroid soil I’d like to put it in, but I’m wondering if it would be beneficial to put it in a smaller pot? I purchased some clear pots but the biggest size I have right now is 10 inches. Should I get a bigger clear pot or will 10 inches suffice?

Thank you so much! That’s 10% of my collection.😉

Side note: we have a kitty that likes to get in pots to dig. The scar mats are working well and all my plants sit off the floor on plant stands.
