Fred Clarke talked to our Society. He pointed out most of the red color comes from Sophronitis coccinea and various rupicolous Laelias. These are hummingbird pollinated so they don't need any scent.

When you eventually pot it separately, soak the roots in water for an hour. They will be more flexible. Twist them in one direction and they will spiral into the pot.

I've seen this used. It works if your humidity is fairly high. It's OK to completely soak the entire plant and pot at the same time. Don't worry about getting water in the crown. It will evaporate...
