Since it is in a pot I think it is fine to go on and get it in the ground now. That way you can make sure it gets going well. If it is in a potting mix in the pot I always wash all of that off before planting. You want it in the soil it is going to grow in. Do not let the roots dry out, so dig the new hole first, wash the potting mix off, and plant immediately.
Post pictures of the roots of you want!!
