I have a kiki that has been sloooowly growing "a" root for the past few
months, but now its also grown a flower spike about 4-inches long. The
root is about 5-inches long and I've not wrapped it with spaghnum or
anything...its just "out there"...

Question: will the flower spike sap the energy from the kiki and should I
break off the spike,...or leave it alone?

The parent plant also has two spikes and is in great health.

Thx.
