Edmondas noted:
<< About leaves there is said: "Leaves narrow, strap shaped, 5 to 16 cm long,
2 =
to 7mm wide, apex acuminate, with three to five fine weins, without =
obvious midrib." You can be successful to identify only when you will =
have flowering plant. >>
The Cambridge BIS book reads:
'Leaves about 8-10 cm long., 0.2-0.7 cm wide, but growing after flowering,
stong, ribbed.'
It notes further that the species is surprisingly difficult to grow, which
isn't surprising since we can't even seem to get a consistent description.
Clarence's has flowered so I will ask him if his has a rib.
