I wouldn't bother with repotting, if it is growing and you can keep it
moist. Davillia is an epiphyte, or at least ruderal (or humus epiphyte -
roots don't really penetrate soil), and I grow some on logs just for
effect. You could just slip the pot into a larger clay pot, and let it grow
all over that, too.
