What type of orchid is this?

I've had this orchid for over 5 years and it hasn't bloomed. It was from Kona. One visitor said it should be bigger, but it wasn/t bigger when I received it.

So, I do not know what type it is or the light it would need. Should it dry out before watering? It's actually in good shape.

Thanks

Robert T

If you've had it for 5 years and it looks like that, then you should give it more light without changing anything else.

Definitely a mini Dendrobium. Also, I agree with made4engineering. Keep doing what you're doing because it looks healthy and give it more light.

Curious... Are you growing it indoors or outdoors? How much light does it get?
