This orchid was doing very poorly, having lost all but one leaf and most of its root system due to root rot. Tell tale signs were limp wrinkled leaves, mushy roots, dropped flowers, and a fruit fly problem. I unpotted the orchid, trimmed back all but three good looking (green) roots, and deployed the sphag and bag method. Three months later I have two new leaves and new root growth. I will replant the orchid as soon as the new leaves get a little larger.
