Dendrobium farmeri
Well, it is Dendrobium season in NJ. They do not take up too much space, and can produce a lot of flowers. The flip side is, that the flowers do not last very long (about 10 days for farmeri).
This plant in an 11 cm (4.3") pot produced 3.1/2 inflorescences from the lead cane, and 2 each from two of the older canes. Couldn't get it to hang straight for a proper photo.
Now I just need a junior AOS judge to count the number of flowers.
Update: With another Dendrobium now in bloom, I can see that the plant marked farmeri is actually a thyrsiflorum (so I have two of those now).
