Default Amazon Sword with long stalk

The beautiful amazon sword in my tank is now about 10" high and has over 20
leaves. It has grown a long stalk which looks like it might be flowering,
or could be new shoots starting about every 2" along the stalk. Any advice
on this much appreciated.

Admire it.

It's a flower stalk, and sounds like it has adventitious (sp?) plants
growing along it.

You can separate the new plants when they have grown some roots, then
you will have more plants than you need.
