Default Gongora Chocoensis

We puchased this young plant last year knowing it might be a year or two before it would bloom. So I decided to take a few pics and post. To my suprise, I discovered a second flower spike starting while I was taking these pics.

Here are some pictures of the plant. Please ignore the brown edges on the leaves. I need to trim them back. Also here are pictures of my other Gongora that has two spikes. Probably 2 weeks away from open flowers yet.
