it is an old and rotten bulb.

i would tear this plant off the mount and plant it in fresh sphagnum moss.

Bulbos need to be thoroughly soaked, soaked, soaked at least once a day. It's hard to do this on a mount unless you have a greenhouse and staff who water at least once a day.

I agree with CambriaWhat, that orange looks like fungus growing on a rotten bulb to me. That said, the new growth looks good!
