Hi everyone!

I have developed a healthy obsession with houseplants, and the fourteen I have right now are all thriving.

Though I have realised that my calathea, monstera (deliciosa & obliqua), and ficus elastica are growing less rapidly than the past one and a half year. Is it time to repot them? Can I do that during winter, or should I wait until spring?

Also, which houseplants are your favourites? Do you (like me) name your plants?

Have a lovely day! :)
I love my African violets because they never die. I don't name mine but I do talk to them lol

I would wait until spring to repot. I don't know the other plants, but I have a rubber plant and since they go dormant in winter he may not survive. Do you have the ficus in full or partial sun?

The ficus (Jean-Pierre, I call him XD ) is in a west-facing windowsill, so he gets some direct light :)
