Hello and Welcome to the wonderful world of the OB

Tricky...

Reasonably new to Orchids, so not completely sure.
With time some plants can recover, and splicing (as it were) trees or roses together has been done to produce varied fruit crops/colour displays.

So there is a chance that give care and attention the flowers you have now will continue for a time.

HOWEVER.... (Here it comes) The plant has had a bit of a shock to the system so the buds that exist may not Flower but die away. And to be Honest, I would expect that to be the case.

It may be that only time will tell. With extra care and attention you may just be lucky, but I wouldn't get your hopes up on keeping the Blooms.

The Plant itself should hopefully be OK and survive on to flower next year with a bit of TLC.

I suppose the Question is whether you want to see for how long the Blooms will survive for and/or if any of the buds will open OR cut your loses so to speak.

(I'd be tempted to wait and see, but that's just me)
