PF stands for Paul Furse.

He is an amateur botanist who, after his retirement from the Navy, spent several years searching & travelling to remote locations in the Near East - Turkey and Iran, and collected many plants, also other species, not only Sempervivums.

RH stands for Ralf Hillmann, a Swiss Sempervivum collector.
