Found the tag for my catt...new positive ID!

So I was looking at my orchids this morning as usual when I noticed a tag in a pot that didn't have one before. I'm thinking DH maybe found it near the kitchen sink where I repotted when I got my Cattleya and just stuck it in the nearest pot...

Well the packaging for the Catt only said "Yellow with red lip"

This is what the tag said...

It's for my Catt! I put it in the correct pot and will do some research on it while I'm at work today! So exciting! Now I need to change my growing list before I go to work!

Whooppee for DH! You're going to love this one. We'll be eagerly awaiting some pics when it blooms.

It might be a bit. I got it at Lowes and even though it was potted in orchid mix it was packed way too tight. Most of the roots were rotted...it's got a ways to come back, but it looks happy. I got my Hawaii Stars the same trip...the newest growth on that thing has grown almost an inch and a half since I got it!!! The tzen wen also has a newish growth, but it's growing much slower than the other. I don't know if that's normal or not, but I imagine part of it has to do with the sucky roots.
