This is one of the two spikes in bloom right now. Two already bloomed. There are about eight more on the way.

 
Two right now, two before and eight more on the way? WOW! That's fantastic! Congrats!:) Looks beautiful!
 
That's a very pretty Gongora Sue. I got a couple a few years back, one was supposed to be a cassidea, but they both turned out to be different forms of truncatum.
 
It's in sphag. Also, I understand that this is likely to be G. galeata, not G. cassidea.

In the second, as you can see, the flower is fading.
