Flowers dying off is completely normal! To keep the plant going you can trim the stem either right to the bottom, or trim to the stem node below where the flowers grew. My orchids bloom yearly so don’t worry if nothing much is going on with the plant

if you trim all the way down to the base, you will get bigger stronger blooms, but there is no right way to do this, its all up to you!

Yep perfectly normal. Mine can have no flowers for months and then gorgeous blooms when the temp dips over winter months. When the blooms die off just trim them from the base. New leaves usually grow when their not in bloom. My miniature orchid looks like it has horns 🥰🤣 xx

i don’t see anything wrong, like matilda said flowers have a lifespan, though sometimes as long as 9 months for some orchids. i would remove the dead flowers and any dead foliage. the flower stems look green and healthy, so if properly taken care of should produce another round of blooms in a few months
