It grows on the rainforest floor, often in the deep shade of ancient trees, with upright stems that can reach up to 70 cm in height, at the end of which stands a rosette of 2 to 5 leaves. The leaves grow to about 10 cm in length, and in exceptional cases up to 15 cm. Fresh leaves appear rolled up and unfurl over a few days. The leaves are noticeably thick and fleshy, but not as thickened as those of \u003cem\u003eG. ciliatus\u003c\/em\u003e . The pattern on the leaves is somewhat reminiscent of the \"Watermelon \u003cem\u003ePeperomia\u003c\/em\u003e \" ( \u003cem\u003ePeperomia sandersii\u003c\/em\u003e ), to which it is not closely related. Furthermore, the contrast between the light and dark stripes on the leaf is stronger, and the plant is generally much larger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The typical wavy shape of the leaf only develops some time after it has been unrolled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe undersides of the leaves are deep purple and covered in yellowish hairs.
