Can't add second child to StackPane repeatedly

Question

Hi,
I have a StackPane array, which is filled up with two ImageViews. First ImageView is an unique picture, second ImageView is the same for every StackPane:
       StackPane[] cards = new StackPane[gisView.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < cards.length; i++) {
            cards[i] = new StackPane();
            System.out.println(cards.getChildren().add(gisView[i]));
System.out.println(cards[i].getChildren().add(topCard));
System.out.println(cards[i].isManaged());
System.out.println(cards[i].getChildren());
The problem is, that the second ImageView - topCard, is added only to first/last StackPane even I added it to every StackPane in cards.
- both add() methods return true, as well as isManaged() method.
- addAll(E...) doesn't work either even it returns true too.
- I checked the errorProperty for every Image and there's no problem with loading the images.
- both ImageViews do get added to StackPane inside the for loop, but there's only one ImageView in StackPane outside the for loop.
I hope it's some trivial issue that I just can't spot.

A node can only be the child of one node at a time.
