Mussaenda ‘Dolores A. Ramirez’ is a hybrid variety named in honor of the National Scientist Dolores A. Ramirez for her outstanding contributions to the field of genetics. It is an outstanding selection with profuse inflorescence from a cross between M. ‘Maria Makiling’ x M. ‘Doña Trining’. Even during the dormant months, this mussaenda hybrid continues to bloom and does not tend to droop at the peak of flowering. The mussaenda hybrid variety is a part of the Outstanding Women Breeder Series from the UPLB.
