Dendrochilum Species Unknown

About six months ago I purchased a division of this very cute plant originating from Indonesia.

It is now in flower... so can anyone guide me as to what it is?

Regards
Gary

Dendrobium Speciosum var. speciosum juvenile plants

Dendrobium Speciosum intervarietal

Dendrobium Speciosum var pedunculatum 'Herberton Gold' x grandiflorum 'Best 2005'. The idea here is to make this grandiflorum flower earlier with more upright racemes and in bonsai format.
