Stem propagation; common in cymbidiums, see also Rebecca Tyson Northen's book.
They are really popular in phaleanopsis.
Its a way to artificially induce a new plant from a dormant node on a flower spike. It is done in vitro under sterile conditions. Its an easy way to get a few exact copies of a plant.
Stem props can't be done with slipper orchids.
