I have several starter plants of Singapore Holly
(Malpighia coccigera) that will eventually be
trained as bonsai. Their small holly-shaped
leaves makes them very charming, and they have
lovely delicate light purple flowers.

Lately, I've noticed that the newer leaves are
not holly-shaped, but look more oval like their
relatives, the Barbados cherry. Is there a
particular light level that's required to bring
out those gorgeous holly-shaped leaves?

Thanks,
Shireen
