Can my orchid be saved?
Default Is it dead?

Hi all,

Had this orchid for about 3 years in moss in glass thingy bob

Repotted it few weeks a go in clear pot with all bark. Snipped off dead spike, non green. Cut off dead roots.

Noticed a leaf which had dark patch, smelt and area of patch was paper thin...suspecting bacteria rot so I've cut the leaf off.

I've taken some more roots off as I can't decide if they are dead or not and put it in a Listerine bath (I don't have peroxide)

It is drying out now. Might go get some cinnamon from shop to put on leaf I cut.

Do you think it's even worth bothering or is it dead dead?

Roots look ok when I have taken off some of the dark sheefs to reveal white stringy root underneath, but I don't really know exactly what I am doing. It looks rotten at crown too

Thanks
