I picked mine up at the WOC in January from Carmela's Orchids but I don't see it on their site:
Orchid Growers - Hakalau, HI - Carmela Orchids
Roly, they have this too:
(Carmela Orchids - Hakalau, HI)

I began looking up Mary Ellen Carter's lineage and it started to become a bit complicated -
I did find that it has Cattleya dowiana in it's background and you can see it's influence on the lip
