Vireya, Rhododendron 'Fire Plum' in bloom again!
Hi all,
Some of you may recall my Rhododendron 'Fire Plum when it last came into bloom in my newest viviarium/ericadarium. Well its at it again, but this time with 4 trusses. Here is the first bloom. Also, I have detected a sweet smell in the tank since its started blooming. Flowers seem to last about a week to two weeks open.
