Paph Fair Fred

This year's blooming is a minor miracle considering the abuse I put this plant through. I still like the bloom though. Its a dark purple that is one of my favorites.

Friedrich von Hayek has been used in several crosses, but I've never been able to find a photo of it. Does anyone out there have one?

The only place I have seen a pic of Friedrich von Hayek is in OrchidWiz database - similar to Macabre but finer spotting.

I think I found one. This is listed on SOF for sale.
