I just bought one yesterday. They're very nice when they get large, or at least the ones I saw at the nursery was.

Yeah, it sure is a cutie 
Trying to figure out how to provide the best care I can for it. I'm guessing it likes it fairly wet- by the looks of it. Some sun, semi-shade, I'll try to read how it reacts, and respond to whatever the plant seems to be telling- look for signs of "happy plant" or "not so happy plant" 
Lol, sometimes I can't decide what to do, and end up with this:
Poor thing still stuck in a bucket- 10 liter- still havent decided what to do with that either.
My habiki still not got a place in this house- still thinking about where to put them. Who wants the sunny place and who wants the shady place- need to do some more reading…

I think it is grown pretty much like a Den laevifolium, which like to stay moist and prefers phal light IMO. Just keep the media moist but keep the pseudobulbs dry.
I found a thread about their care here:

Wow, a real beauty! How tall will the canes grow? And are the flowers fragrant?

Not sure how big it gets, but if you search for Hibiki in this forum- you can read more about the plant
I didn't plan on buying this, it just kinda reminds me of palm-tree and big flowers, a small plant but still big in flowering. Feels like vacation just looking at this little guy 😎
Growing and looking happy😊
And you can see it will give even more flower. Not bad, considering how small this plant is😎

A little beauty, Helene!
To the size question: one variety i had produced canes up to about 8.5 inches, but most of them stay smaller than that.
