I have no experience with Epidendrums though, so don't know how easily they put out roots.
Yes,it looks very dehydrated!
My friend who work for a Thai restaurant gave the permission to pick up these poor plants from outside where I found them,just laying on ciment(they have 4 big pots outside with blooming Epidrendrum and somehow 2 branches just fail off...
I offered volunteer to take care and revive them.
There wasn't any root system when I found them,just pseudobulbous or aerial root.
It took me 2 days to find out what species are these"ladies"...unfortunately,I had to keep them inside for 2 day ,I gave them just a shower

Yesterday I was so happy to find out they are Epidendrum Cinnabarinum,they love partial sun(full sun only for few hours) and good portion of water.
I've planted them in regular soil(so far),I picked up the parasites from the stem and placed in a humid corner of my porch where the sprinklers give them enough action.

Cannot wait to see these babies revived
Plese help!!
