Thanks Tobi.
The stake is barely an inch above the frame of the photo and I am actually looking for one taller than this one. I have many bamboo stakes but they are thick and I hate to push it down the medium.If I can't find a reasonably thin one I will have to think of some other alternative.
2 feet of an inflorescence will be really something

. This is the first one for me and I will be happy to even get one flower.
