Ooohh, you make me blush, Geoffrey.
This Homalomena 'Harlequin' was registered in The Netherlands quite a long
while ago, together with another one. It is indeed a wallisii cultivar but
to my knowledge a selected strain with particular foliage shape. Not a
cultivar orginated from a hybridisation, as far as I know.
Cheers,
Wilbert
