I think it suffers from something in the growing conditions. Is the soil too wet?

no tendetially dry.
It grows together with Cyp. macranthos and Cyp fargesii and other plants.
All other are fine.

There are forms of P. obovata with very red or greyish-red leaves. I think all the white forms which grow here, or at least those I've seen, have these coloured leaves, like a deep, plummy bloom.
