    I was told I have some type of spike plant or tree. The tree is approx. 10' tall and 6' wide. I really think it should be replanted but I have to find a home for it. Thank you for your time , Shawn

    Looking at the pot and how healthy the plant(s) look (except a little bit of leaning) I probably would not repot it (unless it's been years since new soil) but you don't want to really go any larger (pot wise)
    You can cut it back the stems to a more desired height if you like to better catch the light instead of being way up near the ceiling. New growth will grow from around where you made the cut.
