About a year ago my roommate bought a coniferous-looking house plant from a grocery store. He dropped it in the corner and forgot about it. It started to look sick so he dumped it outside, on the deck. That was last summer. Towards the end of the fall, just before the first snowfall, the plant came back to life. It grew. I brought it back in the house, left it by the sliding doors, routinely watered it and now it's growing healthily.
However, the plant is obviously too big for the original pot and probably should be re-potted and given new soil, etc.
My question(s) to you ATOTers with green thumbs: The plant is about two and a half feet tall, how big should the new pot be, and what should I do to ensure it's continued survival during repotting and beyond?
I've taken a keen interest in keeping the plant alive.
