Default Three in one pot?

I bought a phal,( P. Sogo Moondian '#1'x P.Join Grace 'Hua-Yen.) There are 3 pretty good size plants in the pot,one large spike. Is it ok to leave it like this or do I have to separate? I love the look but want whats best for the plant. it is in a clear pot and the roots look nige and green.
What do you suggest?
Thanks, Gladys:

I have been recommending to keep them in the same pot. I personally think they look nicer and fuller and usually they have at least one spike per growth so the blossoms look fuller as well. Just my opinion, though. There's no special needs the plants have to be seperated if that's what you are asking.

I would probably keep it all together too, if it all fits in 1 pot. If you do ... Just make sure you keep the media fresh, you have not 1 but 3 plants to think about now

It's your call!

If they are 3 seperate plants that grew up together I vote for seperate - let them come into their own in their own pot. Grow to their potential and be judged.

If they are off shoots growing off the same plant, the choice is yours.

Unless you live close to me, there is no reason to split them up. It would be too hard to trade!
