I bought this plant a few years back as Elleanthus cyanocephalus. It lives outside in the summer, but never bloomed. I noticed this flower yesterday, but am not sure when it opened. Today it is wilted and about to fall. Since it doesn't look like any Elleanthus I can find, I'm assuming it is mis labled. Any ideas?

it's a Sobralia, possibly a hybrid

Kim - In case you haven't figured it out yet, Sobralia flowers only last one day.

Thanks everyone. I sort of suspected Sobralia, but since I have no experience with them, I thought I'd consult the experts.
