A cultivar of V. x burkwoodii with lustrous, dark green leaves which are smaller and finer textured than V. x burkwoodii.  The fine textured branches give the overall habit a more refined look.  The flower buds have the least amount of pink of the group, appearing almost white.  Fragrant, 2-3" flowers cover the shrub in great profusion.  Although persistent, red fruits maturing to black are sparse and not effective.  Zone 4
