Well, this is touted as Namwah by Asian gardeners in So. California. But I was beginning to believe it might be a Raja Puri because it fruited at shorter height than what is described as Namwah online (that turn out to be a wrong assumption).

Namwah usually refers to this somewhat tall variety (some people call it Kluay Namwah though). And Dwarf Namwah refers to the dwarf version which came after the original Namwah. And Namwah Pearl is a form of the dwarf variety (some mutant from the lab I read).
