    Its a series of flowers.

    I have a few stalks of it. Just let it be, don't let it wonder too far from humidity.

    Soon you will have plantlets. and perhaps a BUY SELL thread on this. HAHA

    By the way, NICE tank!
    I am balding but i am still young!

    Woah a few stalks?! Means there can be more than one.. so i can cut off and create a new plant after it has grown?
    Thanks for the comment

    You can cut off and replant. the timing is important. you cut it off only when the root system is growing. For me, when i see roots, i push the stalk (haven't cut, just bend slightly) into water and wait until the roots are grown and i can see a pale green crown.

    but i have also just cut and replanted once i see roots. both works for me.

    PS, actually i don't cut it off. i just twist it a bit, it will come off easily when its ready.
