aponogeton of some sort. A better pic of the bottom half would probably ease id issues.
 
I agree! I am almost sure it is aponogeton, I have one and it flowers just like this.

Good Luck!!

I have some of those in my RCS tank and they are Aponogeton. Though I must say I have never seen one flower.

It is very beautiful!
 
I could not have IDed it, but I want some!!!!

Yep, apons do that when they're sending up a bloom stalk. The main plant will go dormant afterward, though. So it's a choice between letting it flower (and trying to grow new plants from it) or cutting the stalk off before it does to keep the 'mother' plant instead.
