Dwarf Pink Singapore was also tissue-cultured in California (Rancho Technologies), and a lot of plants were distributed from that reproduction. The original plant was apparently a hybrid made in Hawaii by a Dr. Izumi on Maui many years ago. There is a gene in P. obtusa that confers dwarf properties, as there are a number of other dwarf types with the P. obtusa-like foliage. Seed is not usually viable. Can bloom even in low light. Not bothered by extreme heat. Sets seed.
