I came across this one in a garden recently. It doesn't appear to be on CotW.

My guess is that it's a misprint and should be Shirayukihime, which looks just like your photo (I have it). Shirayukihime is Snow White in Japanese, I believe.

Mara, I too have Shirayukihime so I guess you are right about that. Haven't really seen it in flower as it only had one flower on it when I bought it earlier this year and by the time I got home with it the flower had dropped off. It has a few buds on it at the moment and they won't be long before they are open. How is yours doing?

Mine's been in a pot for two years and wants out. Actually it did quite well in May, considering; but is looking tired now. I'll have to find a spot for it in the garden.
