I'm NOT happy with them.

I don't think it's necessary to put it in a clay pot, it has plenty of roots left (I removed a bunch of old dried out or mushy ones) and several new roots growing (except those I accidentally removed when tearing up the cork mount, which had started to deteriorate).
The one brown dried spot I see on the top of the one leaf looks like it got a sun burn. This won't hurt the plant but it is unsightly. Is this what the spots looked like on the undersides? Some of my plants have gotten spots like that from burning when I put them out in the spring and they were not used to the light yet. It can show on both sides of the leaf. The way the mount was hanging at the greenhouse could of allowed it to burn on the undersides of the leaves too. And if the nursery imported the plant from brazil at some point or something like that it could of gotten mechanical damage from the trip. Were the spots on the older growths? If the spots are on the older growths, dry and light brown like the one spot in your photo then I wouldn't worry about it. Remember our plants probably look a lot better than the ones in the wild blemish wise and most of the wild ones probably do a lot better!
