All four Singapore white cuttings survived but they were stunted and refused to bloom since I got them from a friend but did not plant right away so they were dehydrated cuttings in Dec 2012! The tallest one is only 4 feet tall and it bloomed just once. Tried to bloom couple times winter time and the frost got it. Now it bloomed again!
