Fewer than a Queen Victoria, but usually more than King Ferdinand. The deep green leaf surfaces have prominent white markings, with most plants displaying short white longitudinal lines or dots on the back of the leaf. Leaf length is from 5 to 8 in. (13 to 22 cm), and the leaf width is from 2 to 3in. (5.8 to 8 cm). Mature plants bloom with tall, unbranched stalk with white flowers. The white edged leaves are sometimes edged with white teeth. All have a short, sharp black terminal spine, which can be multi-pronged. (Never wild collected – nursery propagated via seed or divisions.)
