Description
sororium SEH#27018 This is a dwarf epiphytic evergreen shrub with thick and leathery, elliptic to oblong leaves. The small but bright yellow flowers hang singly or in pairs from the tips of the branches. They are bell-shaped with widely flaring lobes. This is one of several closely related taxa newly introduced from S Yunnan and adjacent N Vietnam. Many of these have only recently been described by botanists as new species. This species is visually distinguished from its close relatives by its very large leaves. Quite hardy for a vireya – we have had this planted out in the garden for many years with no damage. Our largest-leafed form. (?10\R1\2) RSBG#2019/044
