Miltassia Dark Star 'Darth Vader'? Should I repot it now? Male
Default Miltassia Dark Star 'Darth Vader'? Should I repot it now?

Hello, my friends

I have this one which I'm not sure what it is...the tag in the pot says cambria but judging by the flowers this seems to be a Miltassia Dark Star 'Darth Vader'.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I shuld repot it now since I've never done it with this plant. As you can see there are some flowers but they are beginning to dry.

It has a lot of roots and there's a new shoot starting to grow. Also, the pot is already deformed so I guess it would need a change into a bigger one.
The medium is fine bark only, I think.

So, is this the right time to repot it?

BTW, as a side note, now that the flowers are dying, the start to be fragant.

Mne is showing a lot of new growth now so I will be dividing and repotting soon. I always look for new roots as an ideal time to repot

I like your sink a lot, but I bet it's a lot of work to keep clean.

Not the best background, I know but that's the available space I have for watering.
But you're right, my sink is great!

I'm so envious of you! This plant has been on my wish list of nerdy orchids for quite some time

I got it without knowing what it was... In fact I had to wait one year to see how the flowers were.
Really easy to grow here.
