It is interesting to see how these plants grow differently. My plant with the flower was part of a plant from an old garden. the pot was broken and when I went to repot, one of those long thin stems broke off. Not knowing much about these plants at the time , I just stuck it in a pot too. It eventually grew leaves from the top. Looked a bit funny with the leaves coming from the top of a long thin stem but it is now quite large , looking more like a normal plant.
This is the bud of the above flower. The flower stayed open until around 11.30 am the next morning , then slowly closed.
