VERY nice. Looks like you probably have Dinard 'Blue Heaven' AM/AOS. It was widely distributed after it got awarded in 2001. There is nothing quite like it for color.

Actually it is not a 'Blue Heaven' clone. From what I understand, this one has not been shown. I don't know if it was a remake or not, but the folks who owned the plant are AOS apprentice judges and they would have definitely marked the clonal name on the tag if it was that clone.
I love it and am looking forward to showing it in the future. I hope the form improves. It reflexes a bit. But the scent...

3 generations back on one side only, but it really comes through.

I wonder if it could be from a selfing of 'Blue Heaven'. Gorgeous no matter what.
