This is an orchid that my daughter brought me that was practically dead, so I pruned it got it to this point it's been about like this for little over six months.. it has a new growth in the middle of the one leaf, and of course stem from the last orchid, I cut it only halfway, I'm not sure where the orchid grows again, but should I cut the stem all the way down or leave it. Thank you for your information.

It's a Phalaenopsis Orchid. All new growth will be out of the middle where the new leaf is growing. The brown stick is an old bloom and can be cut off.

There's lots of good information in the Orchid Forum about growing Phalaenopsis but it looks like you are doing well on your own.

Cut it as far back as you are comfortable with. It is dead and will not produce flowers again.
Your orchid is a Phalaenopsis Orchid. It is an epiphyte, normally grows on a tree in the jungle for support.
We have wonderful "informational threads" within the Orchid Forums on this site.
Basic care: bright windowsill, no sun light at all, 60-80 degrees, water well when the orchid media(soil substitute) is dry, perhaps every 4-5 days. DO NOT POT IN SOIL! SOIL WILL KILL IT.
Your is looking a bit ragged because in all likelihood it has been neglected.
I strongly urge you to read the thread on Supermarket Orchids within the Orchid Forums. It is full of great information on growing Phalaenopsis.

I'm not seeing where your orchid is looking 'ragged'. I think you've done a great job of reviving an orchid you described as "practically dead" 6 months ago.

If the plant was healthy and not 'ragged', after under better care or original care, it would have 5 or 6 leaves and lots of good roots everywhere. I don't see that here.
Fortunately Phalaenopsis respond quite nicely and rapidly to improved care.

When you rescue an orchid, you have to celebrate the little things. After 6 months, still alive with one leaf and a new one growing, a win win in my book. Good work, Samantha!
