The leaf, which has a metallic lustre, appears dark silvery in the centre, shading into coppery rose toward the margin, which is broadly and evenly edged with the same hue, but darker and more brilliant. The striking peculiarity, however, which distinguishes it from all other Bconias, is that the two lobes at the base of the leaf do not grow side by side but one of them winds in a spiral-like way until in a full-grown leaf there are four of these twists lying on the top of the leaf nearly two inches high. 25 cents each.
