Vireya Rhododendron Cara Mia

We picked up a Vireya rhododendron for cheap in the first week of August.

This one is a Cara Mia vireya rhododendron.

There were a few buds developing on the plant when we purchased it.

Here is the bloom in late August, a soft yellow shading to pink. This is just after opening. Ever since then, the flowers have opened a bit more fully and have tilted upwards more instead of outwards like here.
