Default Would like to cut this Vanda back

The picture is of my Vanda Sansai Blue which is very tall. Would it be possible to cut the stem and put the plant in a separate basket? Would a new plant grow on the bottom part of the stem? I’ve had it about 10 years, and it blooms every summer/fall. I put it outside during the summer, but the rest of the year it is under artificial lights.

Your cutting would have to be well rooted beforehand. I really don't see a place to cut.

Ray is spot-on. The top part doesn't have roots. Cut the plant and you're likely to kill both parts.
