Ohh garden potting mix-probably not good. Maybe it is peat or coir? If it sat in that mix of water for a few days, I think you are going to need to depot it, and rinse, then rinse, then rinse again on the roots. Then repot using a good potting medium for a newbie, like a bark mix. Honestly a pic would really help. Also if it sat on the leaves in any light, it would magnify the light and burn the plant. Like I said, redness on the leaves indicates it's getting bright light. It depends on how red. It also depends on if it has colored flowers, they tend to have redder leaves.
