I always stake my buds, usually there are only 2 or 3 to worry about, but 5! I will probly use a couple sticks, and tie each one best I can....these are big 'floof' cattleyas, so it should be interesting....
I think staking and tying buds would be a good topic for discussion on here!
Do you mean staking the stem, or really are going to stake the individual buds?

I will try to put a couple on one stem if I can, but it is going to be crowded! I have some short green wire that wont be so noticeable, I just don't want to break one!....
I think I will use green florist tape to hold the individual flower stems....
