I think I've seen this hybrid being sold at some of these orchid shows here in the US before from an international vendor coming from Australia called Down Under Native Orchids.

They used to come here to SoCal orchid shows quite often. I'm not sure if they do it anymore, considering how the economy has been and with the changes in exportation laws in Australia and whatnot.

This exact cross might be hard to get hold of but this style of breeding is pretty common in Australia. Fred Clarke looks to be selling some nice, modern crosses that I presume are from recently imported breeding so I'd keep an eye on what he offers in the future.

This particular cross was done by Windemere Orchids (Home) but I don't think that they export and unfortunately DUNO have closed down. However, as Andrew noted there's a lot of this type of being being done in Australia along these lines, often using the same parent stock.

Oh...

Wow. That sucks. I didn't see the link that said that they were going out of business and selling the company. I just used to see them at every show event here in SoCal.
