Seems like a very interesting cross. The hamata influence comes through very clearly. What attributes of singalana come through the most strongly in this plant?

 

[JMatt]

Well as far as looks I think its a pretty good blend of the two although the color is from the hamata.
I believe it is much more heat tolerant than the red hairy hamata.
Cuttings, once rooted grow fast. Goes right into vine mode.
