No. Over time, a vandaceous plant will form roots all along its "stem". If you "top" one, and the top has roots, you can grow it as a new, smaller plant. Quite often, the "base" will sprout side growths, and can be continued-on as its own plant.

Vandaceous plants are climbing, vining plants, although some have more of a tendency (arachnis and renanthera), and others less (ascocentrum).

AH, thanks Ray! I didn't think what I was considering "topping off" was correct. Didn't seem right to me, lol...

I sure hope it will not get to big. I don't like the idea at all. I have seen very big ones.
