    Hello! Yes, your orchid can be saved. Firstly, the wrinkled leaves are indicating that it’s thirsty. Best watering practice is to soak for 10-15 minutes. Make sure the water doesn’t get into the green part or it can cause root rot. I would recommend switching out of a terracotta pot. They are porous and dry out quickly. I have my orchids in clear plastic pots so I can see the roots. Green roots = hydrated. Silvery rooted = thirsty. You can cut back those flower stalks to 1” from the base. The brown one is dead already and the plant is using energy to keep the other one alive. However, it can grow a whole new flower when it’s time to bloom again, which happens only one or twice a year. Looks like it’s plants in orchid bark, which is good! It also doesn’t appear to have sun damage. It should perk up with some water! Good luck!

    I agree with everything said, but I would change the orchid bark out for some fresh orchid bark and perlite I use 1 part perlite to 3 parts orchid bark so just a little. It will help the plant be able to retain moisture so the leaves will not get wrinkly. The last thing is that orchids love humidity around 60-70% (this is optional but it helps them happier)

      Thank you so much! I used fresh bark after I soaked the roots and I’m either insane or already noticing a difference in my orchid 😂
