Three beautifully spaced branches carry 8-10 buds. Here is a Queen Of Show winner for sure. The ring is the plicata band encircling the falls. Standards are palest violet-white and are completely sanded and veined medium violet. Stark white falls are banded with dark purple.
Beards are dark navy blue.
Vigorous plants with clean, wide foliage. This is one of my favorites. Artful is a fuller, rounder, more refined version of Privileged Character. Upright standards have a silvery orchid ground with wide, heavily sanded and veined plicata bands and midribs of red purple. Short white veins accent each side of pale blue white beards.
