Dendrobium Hybrid

Question:

I have a miniature Dendrobium hybrid that looks like it may be making a flower spike.  If so this would be my first orchid to bloom with my cultivation (ie, not with the flowers already present at the time of purchase) since starting this addiction 4 or 5 months ago….. Does anyone know the parentage of this hybrid…the label says D. Nida Stripe. Thanks. Howard
