This is in Honolulu at a dress shop boutique that sells dresses and the like made on the island of Molokai. I had to ask the lady if she knew the

history of it, she didnʻt, but that the owner of the shop is a botonist on Molokai.  So my vote is P. glabrata, it looks just like mine did at this age.

Any thought out there??

The glossy green cup-shaped leaves indicate that it could be glabrata, but I am never fully sure about seedlings. P. martii seedlings also have cup-shaped leaves. My best guess is glabrata.

Wow! Look how lush and green that thing looks! Mine are in full sun and doesn't even look this good. I think I remember seeing this at Manaola in Ala Moana?
