This is a good example of why, whenever we talk about plants we should include pictures. I saw this thread and thought spider plants as in cleome plants. The ones you are actually talking about I was raised calling them airplane plants.

Thanks for the heads up Isa, mine is definitely the spider plant, and its just as well as the flower is now gone!

I agree Jacqui
