Beautiful & easy-to-grow specimen plant

I've had mine for almost a year now, and I love it! I got it early last summer and it's put out two new stalks, and two more are just starting to pop up from the soil. I thought that it would be hard to care for and need a lot of humidity, but it did fine inside during the winter, and grows like a weed during the summer.
The leaves are beautiful and it's so satisfying to watch a new leaf emerge from the main stalk and unfurl itself. I haven't had mine bloom yet, but hopefully after another successful growing season it'll reward me with some flowers. 10/10, would recommend!
