For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Orchids like to be pot-bound (small pot) and also they tend to have "air roots" which are meant to be out of the soil. So overflowing roots are not a problem. If it is getting to be unsightly, move it into a slightly larger pot. Use orchid potting material, as orchids do not like regular potting soil.
