That's gorgeous. 
I bought my wife an orchid as a joke about 7 years ago.It was only about 1/2 inch high and was sold growing in a little glass test tube.She was expecting a bigger version. Anyway it survived,grew, and started flowering years later. It now flowers regularly every year and it's red but no idea what type of orchid it is.The sprays of flowers are about 4ft tall. 
I've got a pic somewhere.When i find it i'll add it on if you don't mind me hijacking your thread.

I've no idea what type of orchid this is but it's about 4-5 ft tall.The red flowers are about 2 inches across and they last for about 6 weeks.It grows on our bedroom windowsill.
Here's a closer view of the flower.

Ours started off tiny,a little sprout in a glass tube.Now its in a 10 inch diameter pot.If this one is anything to go by they are really easy to grow.I don't know much about orchids but i may get another one this year.Maybe a purple or yellow one.

Looks like an Oncidium or an Odonto-brassia, to me.
*edit: does it smell strongly of Chocolate when it finally opens?
