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.

Cromaphyto I have plant labeled with code
FOL 2006/02B. I know that 'OL' is your name and surname but what's with this 'F'?
Btw. plant is a very good grower and looks amazing!
In my collection I also have some coded names that might be useful:
MCS = Mark Smith (Bristol, UK)
CW = Cees van den Wittenboer (NL)
M. = Peter Mitchell (UK)
H = Henk ‘t Hart (NL)
BZ = Ben Zonneveld (NL)
MM = Martin Miklanek (SK)
