My scorpion orchid has a young plant on the stem of the parent do I have to cut the old one? there are two flower spikes on it and it has been flowering for more than a year now, every time I intend to cut it because of its height it is about ten feet tall, it has fallen over lots of time because it is in a pot so I have tied it to a wall and there comes a new spike, so can someone please tell me how to handle the young one, thank you

No roots as yet, this is the first time I have ever had one so I did not know that the young plant sends root I thought I had to cut the parent and replant where the young one is, thanks
