Trying to keep this orchid alive. Hasn’t bloomed in years but leaves look mostly great and there is a new root growing. Can I cut the dead roots off?

My orchid had many rotten roots and i just washed the roots and added new moss in between them. I noticed there was something wrong with it when the flowers started falling even though they haven’t dried up yet. I’m going to get more moss to cover up the top a little but is there anything I can do to improve its health? I’m also planning to not water it for a while to let the roots breathe a little.

Trying to figure out how to save my mom’s orchid… leaves are droopy and shrivelled, one is even papery thin/dried up. Upon inspection I realized it basically doesn’t have any roots in the potting medium anymore, only the aerial roots! Help please??? What should I do?

New bloom! I’ve had this one for years with no blooms so I’m pretty excited about this!

Does anyone know why my orchid hasn’t bloomed for a year? It’s sprouting new leaves and roots, it’s just not blooming.

Hello everyone. I have a sad Orchid that I’m going to try to save. I was going to attempt Leca as the potting medium. Anyone have experience with these, or advice to save my Orchid? The roots appear pretty much gone from the pot, but haven’t pulled it totally out.

So I live in the nepa and when the smoke from the Canada fires covered the area I live for 2 days my orchid started to wilt I lost 1 flower already. I’ve been following the care instructions to a T and don’t know what’s wrong. The only thing that comes to mind is the air quality being over 500 for 2 days, could that have possibly affected my flower.

Picked up this beauty at my local home improvement store. The phot doesn’t do it justice. Lemon yellow with blood red throat. 💜💜💜

Any suggestions for this Vanda Miss Joaquim? She’s not looking right. She gets at least 6hrs direct sunlight, and I dip her water every other day

My orchid isn’t blooming and hasn’t for over a month. Could she be over heated? Should I bring her inside?

I’m new to orchids. I haven’t had my miniature orchid for long. It used to have many buds and flowers but now it looks like just a stick with pretty, long leaves. If you have any tips or tricks please comment. Thank you!🤗🤗🤗 Edit: I live in Florida. Could it be overheated?

hi all! i’m pretty new to orchids and trying to revive this that got super dehydrated when my coworker was out suddenly for a few months. since i repotted a few months ago there’s a new leaf and some new baby roots that were coming in but they seem to have stopped growing. any idea what’s going on or how i can help it? i did treat with hydrogen peroxide for possible crown rot after the baby roots died. (added a pic at the end from when i started the rescue attempt so you can see the progress so far.) any advice would be much appreciated!

Hello! About a two months ago I reported my orchid and it fell out of its pit and lost all of its leaves, ever since it has had zero growth and I don’t know how to encourage growth, any tips?
