What have you got it potted in?

Not-paticularly-good orchid bark with terracotta mixed in for extra drainage. It was all I could get my hands on at the time. I wasn't about to ask my partner to go out and buy $50 worth of materials for a plant he didn't care for, so I had to improvise.
Will repot with better media in spring. It would do more harm than good to take it out now during Autumn.

This could possibly be a Schomburgkia. They have the leaves all at the end of the p-bulb. I think Den. speciosum has leaves a little further down the bulb.

Doubtful Jasen... Den. speciosum is prolific in Australia. Probably the most owned (and disowned) orchid grown in Aussie gardens... well, on the east coast anyway...

I didn't even notice the location.
