My specimens differ from the type (F. Mueller, no. 395, in Herb. Kew.) in having 
somewhat sharper-angled leaves. In cultivation this beautiful little plant woefully 
.deteriorates, possibly in consequence of exposure to light of too high intensity ; in its 
native woods, at least at Corumbá, it prefers the darkest recesses. [ Bras. Or.]
