The leaves are shorter (4cm) and narrower (1cm) than H. stricta and H. corymbosa and sport a light green, sometimes reddish-brown colour. Regular pruning will keep the plant healthy. When the plant reaches towards the surface, leaves become red and compact. Ideal conditions would include strong lighting and an iron rich, fine substrate.
