Its leaf blades grow very large, are slightly coriaceous, rather glossy, elongate-oblanceolate. Primary lateral veins are very distinctly prominent below. Midrib almost 5 mm wide at the base, strongly attenuating upwards, sunken above, distinctly prominent below. Secondary and tertiary veins numerous, more slender than primary veins, and parallel with them.
