It is very variable but typically a plant with tuberous rhizomes and elegant leaves on a long petiole. The petiole is dark purple in color and this color is extended to the veins on the underside of the leaves.
- It is widely grown in Nepal and through the Himalayan range up to northeast India. Found growing in forest areas close to cultivated land where the tuber is cultivated for food. Reaches 4-5 feet.
