Do I see tangerine in the throat? I've not grown Sugar Blues for over 15 years, but I remember it as really narrow hafted.

Here are two photos of Sky Queen. These are the best beard shots I have. Notice that, compared to the Sugar Blues photo, there is a lighter ares around the beard.

The beard is tipped orange. I don't think it is sugar blues. The
pictures on the AIS Encyclopedia have prominent parallel veins coming
off the beard. I don't see it in my picture. Unfortunately none of
the Encyclopedia pictures have great shots of the beard. I looked at
the AIS Encylopedia Sky Queen pictures and I couldn't tell based upon
the pictures.
Thanks a bunch

Agree with Donald. Sugar Blues has some red in the beard?
There are a number of rebloomers with this form. Beard and veins
would have to be checked to nail down the correct one.

Another one that might be considered a possibility would
be Sugar Blues.
