That is a very unique plant and very good looking. I love the saturated green color. Definitely, Fred Clarke would like to see photos.

A 2007 slippertalk post quotes a lengthy email from Fred Clarke regarding Fkd. After Dark which includes the following tidbit about the color range of the cross:
"Amazing color from black, oxblood red, to green with maroon spotting, and one which was solid green"
(emphasis added)
Thread title on ST forum is Sunset Valley Orchids Fdk. After Dark.

I think that probably is not an After dark, but a new FDK: Mo. Lime Tiger x Catasetum expansum - which is for sale in 3" on the SVO website, and this auction from SVO ended recently (with picture similar to above)
