Just spent the last 30mins rescuing this orchid that belongs to my mother in law. It was sitting in pool of water & had to be repotted immediately. I’ve cut away anything dead or mushy and given her new bark soil. What was once a two stem orchid, now in recovery 🤞
Dang I wish you could tag people here! This is a great example for Blute for her orchid rescue mission she posted earlier

Agree — keep the one leaf. Maybe cut the one that has the marks on it. But the your plant needs the good green one 💚
2 Likes Ok great, sounds like a plan. Thanks again!
0 Likes Your orchid doesn’t look too bad! I’m no expert 😅 but I think you should keep your leaves as they appear green & healthy. As for the roots, cut off anything dark brown, mushy to touch or dry bone. I think it’s possible for it to flourish. Best of luck 🤞
