Mislabelled? Waunakee Sunset or Barbara Leann x self?

I picked up this plant a couple years back at auction, and now that its in bloom, I'm thinking this particular plant is a selfing of the Barbara Leann 'Hot Hot Hot' parent. Just wanted to confirm with you folk, so I can confidently 'rebrand' this phrag ;) What do you think? I know fischeri can be autogamous so this seems like a good possibility to me

Oh well, perhaps mine is incorrectly identified. My tag
states (pearcei 'White Magic' x 'Silver Eagle 'Chastity').
The tag is faded so I'm not sure about the 'Chastity'.
 
Eric, you are exactly right. The Phrag I have
blooming is Asuko Fischer 'Waunakee' x Waunakee
Sunset 'Cherry'. The color is now fully developed
and is a rather beautiful shade of pink/melon with
excellent form. Acker's Sunbeam to be exact.
 
Orchid Inn or Orchids Limited? I know it is a genetic gamble but I would expect a lot more red influence from 'Rob's Choice"
I am sure you saw the original posting below:

Oh yes, my mistake! Thanks MaxC, Orchids Limited. I ordered flasks recently, so I have OI on my mind. It doesn't fall into the spectrum of red influence I would expect of those other Waunakee Sunsets from that link. Just tried selfing it today, we will see!
