If you have a picture of the orchid I could tell you more about growing it.

Here is the orchid I've telling you that didn't bloom anymore when the clay pot had cracked and we planted it in soil. We really do not know what's wrong with it but we are still taking care of it although we do not give it any fertilizer. I have asked our housemaid to get some potting material from a friend and hopefully tomorrow we can replant it again in a pot.

Your orchid is a Phalaenopsis sometimes call a moth orchid, It looks like it was getting to much sun, the roots look good, plant it back in a pot the will drain fast, use a good orchid mix they need to have air around the roots, This link might help.

Nothing better than seeing those "spikes" coming out of the base and knowing something amazing is on its way! Plus the flowers last for so long its such a treat to have these plants around, although I find they tend not to live as long as some houseplants which is a pity.
