I managed to damage the stalk during moving so it snapped off. However the plant is still growing strong and the second leaf is well on its way to catching up with the first new leaf.

I managed to leave half of the root structure behind during the previous re-potting but the basil seems to have overcome the trauma, and some pruning and its growing stronger and bigger.

So while i don't expect that it'll work every time, i can successfully repot a plant in practice :) I'm hoping that eventually the orchid will flower again.
