Neglecta (NG). Blue, blue-violet, violet, and lavender blue bitones with a lighter shade of the color of the falls. In some neglectas, the bases and midribs of the standards are nearly as pigmented as the falls. In a reverse neglecta, the standards are darker and the standards lighter. This color pattern was first exhibited in 'Neglecta' a natural hybrid that was at first considered a separate bearded species.
Early examples: 'California Charm', 'Don't Neglecta', 'Meade Haven', 'September Contrast'
