Can anyone name this Dendrobium?

I am wondering if this :photo: is of true color. Can we get a :photo: of the whole plant? Is it a mini dendrobium?

My guess would be a Dendrobium Salaya.

Thanks Cheryl, I would have to take another picture. The stalks of the plant are about 14" tall with a spike extending to about 24". There is 16 flowers about 3" in diameter.

Oh yeah, and the flowers are dark maroon, but the backs of the petals and the center of the flower are green.

My guess is Dendrobium Blue Foxtail - its color is as close to a true-blue as I've ever seen.
Blue Foxtail and Salaya color ranges from blue to deep purple-black (maroon black).
Both are very popular orchids at big-box stores.

Thank you, "cneos", I looked up the blue foxtail. The picture I found is a dead ringer. I think that may be it. Thanks again!
