Looking good!
Those blooms will last, no worry about that. If you've never bloomed your previous plant, the fragile looking blooms are actually really hardy. On my previous-previous plant, they lasted about 6-7 weeks.

Update: I have blooms. I loved the 2nd spike to death by splashing water on it. I have a 4th spike just starting to push out. I would really like to see more root growth, but I am being careful not to over water.
