: My orchid has not bloomed in two years but has now
: attained 4 distinct leaf branches. It is in a 6 inch
: pot and the leaves look very healthy. Should I split

: be much appreciated.

Leave it alone. Sounds fine to me! Fertilize every 2 weeks with a half strength solution. 10-10-10 or 20-20-20 is fine.
