    Question What type of orchid is this?

    This weekend I was given an orchid to "resurrect". I think it's feasible since:

    1) All it's problems seem to stem from poor cultivation (For one thing, the owner had potted it in a mix meant for succulents!!)

    2) Though he has tons of leafless pseudobulbs (28 to be exact), there are seven new shoots coming up.

    My problem is, being so new at this, I'm not even sure what kind of orchid it is! (Yes, the previous owner lost the name tag) Can anyone tell from the pics? Also, with all those leafless pseudobulbs should I split it among several pots?

    Thank you in advance for any help you can give.
