Probably, house plants tend to do better in bigger pots.

Is it planted directly in that big pot, or is it in an inner plastic one?

Its planted directly into the pot! Ok, so new soil and bigger pot! She's my pride and joy!

Don't pot it on into too big a pot! One that is 2 inches bigger will be fine.
