- Leaves rather firm in texture, narrowly lanceolate, 3.5 to 11.4 cm. long, 1.2 to 2.6 cm. wide, broadest at about the middle, then tapering gradually to a cuneate base and an acutely, or rarely, obtusely acuminate apex; margin usually entire, sometimes finely serrate; petiole stout and apparently short; midrib strong for the size of the blade; secondaries 10 to 18 pairs, thin, mainly alternate, arising from the midrib at an obtuse or nearly right angle, then curving upward usually rather abruptly and running for a considerable distance near the margin, ultimately joining the ones next above; finer venation forming a close network of irregularly quadrangular areas, often obscure.
