Can I correct you on one thing first. The plant you have is Dendrobium. speciosum var grandiflora.
It is native to Australia where I live and grows from The northern tip of Australia down to the southern state Victoria.
It flourishes outdoors and likes ful light and will even grow and flower in full sun if it has been conditioned to the environment.
It is as tough as nails and loves warm to temperate areas. Your photo indicates it is fully matured so your conditions are very suitable.
I could not ascertain from the photo's old growths if you have flowered it, but add if it doesn't flower it would be lack of adequate light.
You will have to come to an arrangement as to what you can do when it outgrows the medium it is growing on. If you can attach it to another base it would be ideal as with most species they prefer to be left undisturbed. They can be grown very successfully in pots which is another alternative.
I hope this has been of some help.
