This hibred,
Vireya mcgregori x laetum + saxifrigodes is my latest vireya bloom on a very slow growing low spreading vireya, the blooms started off white and turned pale pink as they opened.
Not scented but flowers lasted about two weeks from opening .

The one in the , middle is a bit unusuall as it was split down the middle 10 petals 5 on each side instead of just 5 like the others. Ive been told that this can happen on hibrids but they tend to grow out of it. Lots of new buds on all of my vireyas so pleanty to watch and brighten up the winter and spring.
