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 have now repotted the plant, removed the compost that contained fibres and
bark, I thought it might get moldy if kept constantly humid. The Phal. is
now in a plastic bag filled with moss and the kind of pebbles used in
semihydro instead.
Hopefully I will get it to live and later bloom again, it had such beautiful
big flowers.
BTW, how many leaves does a normal phal hybrid have before it starts to
flower?
