Okay guys, so all the flowers have fallen off! (They lasted for awhile) Do I cut the stems down as far as a can? Do you think the size of the plant is appropriate for the pot it’s in? Or should I repot?

since the stems are still green, they will likely produce a new growth point. if it were my plant, i would repot (not necessarily uppot, just check on the roots and change the medium if necessary) and add a larger support, orchids love to climb

definitely leave the stems! They make look bland for awhile but it will eventually re-bud 😊 I would also repot. Just make sure you use the proper orchid bark for potting. Also, I recently repotted an orchid I rescued from my mother’s house and realized that the root ball had a plastic “cage” around it that hat cut through many of the constricted roots. I immediately cut it off and my roots are looking so much better now, so I would check for that too!
