Nice! Mine is very rambly and the new growths seem to dig down into the media. I had issues where the new leads would rot under the bark.

Does yours also have the yellow/orange veining?
This was the flowering of January

What is a bag baby? I have seen that term regularily over the years, but have no clue what it is....
Sorry about that - as others have mentioned, BetterGro company sells small seedlings in small baggies, of various genera, some mericlones of famous plants, at local hardware stores in the southeastern US. It was reasonably priced (I think it was 7$ for 2" seedlings and 20$ USD for 4" pots ?) and I got started on my orchid journey that way.

I haven't seen them in Southern California... I miss them!

Interesting, I don't really see the orange stripes. Yours looks closer to the photos online, including the one on the Akatsuka website.

What is wrong with mine? haha

If you refer to the lightest stripes of the petals it may be normal in the first flowering, it has happened to me with other cattleyas, enjoy it now and you will see the second time it blooms.

I mean I've seen the striping before on my other Cattleyas, but this is a mericlone. I didn't expect that much variation in the coloration and patterning between clones. Maybe it is an artifact of the first blooming, as you say, or maybe growing conditions can affect the blooms more than I had expected.
