Hmm... If you grow the two types together you will get an intense
contrast.

Nearly all plants can be transplanted after growing out three
leaves and are working on their fourth. For CP's I let them
go longer since the roots seem to take more time to develop.
What is it growing in? If you can just remove a clump (the plant
should be the center of clump) of the soil without compressing
or it falling all apart, you could easily transplant it. A
table spoon or even teaspoon would probably do the job.
