Just got a blooming mini cattleya that is label "lc Angel love x c Skinner with a delicate flowers no fragrant (read somewhere that it has fragrance?). The orchid is in a 3" clear plastic and slits on the side and bottom drainage. The plastic pot is inside a very clean 3" clay pot. The plant/roots is very dry so much so when I pull it out the potting mix just seperated from the roots and the pot! So my question/ concern is should I just water it for now or give it a soaking? And wait for a few days to pot with new mixture? The orchid came with a mixture of bark, perlite and moss which are all dry also. It seems to me that the plant was in 2" square pot that was transfered to a 3" clear plastic for sale/ transport and hasn't time to adjust y

My concern is should I repot it and it what medium and mix? Clay or clear plastic? Water or soak? Repot it now or wait few day to adjust to my environment. I have so many questions but expertize, comments greatly appreciated. Thanks.
