I love these plants myself. The flowers on this plant isn't always that nice but the foliage is beautiful. I have on that I leave on the outside table in the screen porch and when it blooms, I move it to the front door setting on a pedastal to show off the plant

Update!
OKi Doki. Here is a little update on the plant. It finally decided to bloom. I really really like it. I'll take a better pic tomorrow.

Finally got around to taking pics of it in full bloom, or nearly so. How long do these last?

 Yay, Tin! You did it!!!
Looks great!!!
When mine bloomed last year, they lasted a few weeks 
I'm curious...are those from the cuttings or one of the plants you bought?
Mine is full of buds right now, including the little test plant I have going in aliflor! |

Unfortunately the cuttings you gave me are still babies. So, hopefully next year??
Thanks everyone. I don't know why they call them insignificant flowers. They are very showy.
Though, the inflorescence reminds me of the Plantain family.

Tindo, please show me the whole plant in the orchidarium (so I can get a better idea of overall size of the spike. In other words, try to post a pic of the whole tank. Thanks.
