How would you deal with this orchid? Would you propagate these keikis? Or put some support and let her keep popping out babies like she is going on Maury? She has three big ones with two more on the way.

    Man that one is prolific. Keikis can be separated off when they have about three roots at about the length you have. Idk how well they do if you leave the keikis on, but I'd personally want to mount it to a Y shaped tree branch and let them grow and climb on it as a showpiece specimen

    I’ve never had an orchid with so many keikis either, so I’d be tempted to see what it could do as well. However, I’d keep an eye on the health of the mother. If she just starts to look depleted, I’d give her a break and pot a couple of those babes separately.

    I would propagate them and trim back the flower stem to give the parent plant a rest.

    This is insane, how did I not know this could happen. Orchids continue to surprise me with the strange growths they have lol
