I am sure it would take some time for your plant to break out of that none woven pouch it was rooted in. Just saying i would re pot, only the top of the pot is LFSM. I guess for looks rest is something else that will not hold water as well.
I have a large hanging basket of ventrata in that same media. It is growing well in it just has to be watered 4x more often.

anyone know what this media is?
