Default how to support new blooms?

i'm a new grower but i have an orchid that is blooming for the second time this summer. the spike grew at a 90 degree angle from the older spike. i'm not sure what the best way to support it is. anyone more experienced than me have any suggestions?

If you can find a small branch from a tree with a fork at the top you can use that to support the secondary growth of the inflorescence, thats my reccomendation any way hope it helps.
