The leaves are about 1.1-1.3 cm wide and about 26-32 cm long, blue-green, plump and glossy, with deep veins, finely serrated leaf margins, and slightly blunt leaf tips, giving a gentle appearance. The bracts are green with dark green vein patterns on them, and the color fades layer by layer from the outside inward.
