Dendrobium ID help!

[ajeatoo]

Hi,

I haven't posted in a while but my phal orchid collection just keeps growing and they are all doing well, currently 4 of my 11 are in spike and a 5th is blooming. All the others are working on roots or leaves.

My question today is about dendrobiums. I ended up buying a small Dendrobium spur of the moment when I was buying a phal for my sister in law. Got home all excited and have now realized there are different growing habits to dens. Specifically some need a winter dry rest and like a colder temp to help blooms before the winter rest. Whereas others do not need or require this and don't like a winter rest.

The den I got doesn't have any blooms, although I can see where the old blooms were. They bloomed directly off the cane so it's not a den phal. Other than that I know nothing.

So how should I proceed with this? I don't want to give the dry winter rest if it needs water! It has allot of nice new growth, a few new canes and the older canes had 5 and 6 blooms on them each respectively.

I'll try to load some pics. It kept putting them sideways on me earlier...

Thanks in advance!!
