Does this appear to be dwarf nam wah?

Dsotm · 07-08-2020, 07:55 AM

I bought this As a two inch plug last year and it’s a behemoth. If this is a dwarf
Namwah, does anyone know how tall it fruits in full sun in inland ca? Thanks!!

Might be. But kind of doubtful...... I would say definitely a namwa type. Tall or dwarf remains to be seen.

Thank you. What makes you doubtful? I should clarify it was purchased as a dwarf

I bought a Dwarf Namwa tissue culture from a reputable source back in march.
It's now 3ft tall and the leaves look identical to those on the pup in your pictures if that helps.

Of course mine is still to be determined as well

That’s good to hear. It’s very vigorous for a dwarf. I remember buying from a decent looking website but I can’t find the info now.

I say not a dwarf because it appears that the pettiol canals or whatever they are called are spaced out more than a dwarf should be. Not sure thought. Will hunt up a pic of dwarf namwa
