Dendrobium Blue Twinkle

This is a clone that had a semi fast recovery compared to other Dendrobiums I have.. Its pretty dark in color but not the blue I thought it was going to be from its name. This is mounted. Or rather hanging from a hook with some sphagnum moss.  I might pot it up soon. This is its first bloom with 18 flowers. I thought it was going to have two spikes but they didn't grow. They are still just nubs on the cane. Nice white boarder around the sepals. I cant really see much Den. canalicualtum in it. Maybe the faint smell and shape/size. Very little yellow inside the lip. My camera doesn't do it any justice tho. Still a nice show. I like it!
