I have a pic of variegated Ixora 'Thai Snow' that I have recently seen at Tamiami Orchid Show.
a number of nurseries list it for sale:

but on one site very similar plant is listed as Ixora finlaysonianum 'Variegata'.

both are from Thailand. I am not sure if it's a different cultivar or the same.

I looked carefully at available pictures of both and I think that I. 'Thai Snow' has specled variegation and the leaves are mostly creamy, while 'Variegata' has sort of marbled green-creamy variegation.
So to me it looks like they are different cultivars.
any opinions?
here is my pic

'Thai Snow' looks like a legitimate cultivar to me; I found a few listings for it:
