That is an interesting question. I know they can put out new flower spikes from the nodes on an old spike but I do not know if those nodes would root.

The spike on the white one above is about 34" long and very heavy but it has bloomed on long spikes before and never broke. Crossing Fingers! Crossing Fingers! Crossing Fingers!
