I don't know what the roots originally looked like, but it is possible they were healthy enough not to require cutting off. As others have noted, the plant is remarkably good looking for a plant with severe root rot.

Browse the Phal forums here and look at photos of roots.

My thoughts exactly. People learn to spot counterfeit money by learning what real bills look like. Educate yourself on what the plant should have looked like by reading the link we suggested.

ok, thanks for your advices - i will try sphag-bag metod

someone asked about root rot - it was severe - when i first repotted, all roots (from that one) were completely black, and mushy and the stuff extremely easily slid from that string that is inside - like zero strength required,

so what i should do?

1.) cut the weird spots, wait 2 days
2.) give it micro clima - soaked sphagnum in bag with orchid, orchid without media but hanged with some plastic strips - so it is normal position for her, keep in shady location, thats all?
