Planted an aerial root, and it's growing.

[Jave]

For a while now I've noticed a really nice orchid at walmart.
I've never done flowers before,as I usually garden for food.
Purple is my favorite color,
and when I noticed the flower dying (left in the cold)
I figured I'd take a bit of the root that was hanging out,
and try and pot it.
I'll admit I'm cheap, and didn't want to pay the 12 dollar tag for a plant I thought might just die.. lol
I just wanted to see if I could give it a second chance.

I did a bit of reading,and saw in places people saying the aerial root would just rot if potted, but mine now has 2 cute little shoots coming out with their first little leaves.

I don't know what kind of orchid it is.
It just said "Orchid" on the pot..
I'd like to know what kind of info I should be looking for,
to ensure the plant lives.
I have it in a potting mix at the moment.
Here are some pic.s, and thanks for any help.
