Description

C. de Vos described the tree as having leaves dotted, not flecked, with white.

Cultivation

No specimens are known to survive. An 'Album Punctatum', with "white-speckled foliage", appeared in the 1902 catalogue of the Bobbink and Atkins nursery, Rutherford, New Jersey, though this may have been the 'Punctata' more common in cultivation at that time.[4]
