Rosa,

You have done the right things, so far. My only suggestion is that the
plant will need to be in a VERY humid environment to prevent and even
reverse, to some extent, the ongoing desiccation.

One way to do that is to place the plant - pot and all - in a clear plastic
bag and seal it up. That will prevent the medium from totally drying out
and will be like a mini-greenhouse to keep the relative humidity maximized.

I got a phalaenopsis hybrid (dunno what), that was blooming, but after a
while one of the leaves started going a bit limp and wrinkled. From the
old
flower stem it shot out a new stem with new buds, but then the next two
leaves started getting wrinkled too.
I thought I might have given the plant too much water, and decided to
replant it in a pot with a less dense compost. When I replanted the Phal.
I
noticed it had very few roots left. I decided to cut off the flower stem
with the new buds, hoping the plant would use it's energy on growing new
roots instead of flowering.

It has now been a few weeks and I haven't seen any change, how long will
it
take before I know if my phal is going to get better or worse?
