    Kepp it, spray it twice a day with water or place under dripper and some day it will bloom again.

    With some TLC it will re bloom again. Orchids are very picky plants. They love bright indirect sunlight and they do not like to be moved. I have found my orchids love to be in a south facing window that does not get direct sunlight and they do not like their roots sitting in water. I have a little one I rescued from the garbage at my work place. I lift the whole plant out of its pot give it a good rinse under the some running water and put it back in its pot. I ended up breaking the pot it came in so, I trimmed a solo cup down and put it in there. Seems to be happy and still re bloomed. Hope this helps.

    Mine always re-bloom if I repot in fresh soil or add fresh soil to the top of the pot.

    I had the same question. I was told to just water it w/ 5 or 6 ice cubes a week, and it will flower again next year. I'm waiting.
