Your Den looks to be some kind of nobile-type hybrid. Even in perfect conditions they usually only flower once a year because they need the cool dry spell to flower which, unless we try to manipulate the conditions, only comes once a year. If it was in flower when you bought it and it is now a year later, it might be skipping a flowering cycle which is normal for a lot of orchids when you first bring them home. Nobile-types typically flower in late winter/early spring so look for yours to flower again sometime around then.
