Does anyone know anything about Scilla palviae - recently described from Portugal as my label reads. The spelling could be wrong

It's now Hyacinthoides paivae, a sort of Portuguese bluebell

Kurt Vickery had it on his bulb list a couple of years ago, and seed was distributed last year through the seed exchanges.

May try sneaking it past the BD!
