Hi, I thought I'd post a photo and question for you tropical experts. I have this bird which is actually doing well with one exception. Part of it's stock is growing on it's side. It reminds me of a siamese twin that's joined at the hip. I am afraid if I cut off the side shoot, that it will kill the plant as it's literally 50% of the plant. It also doesn't appear to be something that I could stake up, since when I lift the leaning side, the other side lays down. I just don't know what to do. Anyone have ideas? Thanks! :)
