Popowia has about 50 species distributed in tropical Asia and Africa and in Oceania. These are shrubs and trees. The inflorescence is a solitary flower or a cluster of several. The small, bisexual flowers have six thick petals in two whorls; the petals are sometimes joined to form a cup shape.
Propagation:
Propagation of popowia is primarily achieved through seed sowing. Key factors include warm temperatures, sufficient light, and well-draining soil. Techniques like scarification or stratification may help with seed dormancy. Collect ripe seeds, treat if necessary, sow in substrate, cover lightly, and maintain moisture for successful germination.
