The pods contain within them one or two bean-like brownish-red seeds, but because they do not split open naturally, the pods need to decompose before the seeds can germinate. The seeds are about 1.5–2.5 cm (0.59–0.98 in) long with a brittle, oily coat, and are unpalatable in natural form to herbivores. [8] [10] [7]

They have a cordate (auricled) base and 3–6 rounded lobes, divided no further ...
The leaves are 1–2 metres (3 ft 3 in – 6 ft 7 in) long, and from 10–30 centimetres (3.9–11.8 in) wide. The foliage, which droops with age, is blue-green and shaped like a broad sword, with a broad and conspicuous midrib which is often tinged red, orange red or golden.
The lance-shaped leaves have hairless blades measuring up to 8 cm (3.1 in) long by 2.5 cm (0.98 in). The small flowers are pink, solitary, arranged in lax spreading racemes or panicles. The fruit is a capsule around 2 cm (0.79 in) long and a few millimeters wide. [4] It contains many yellow-brown seeds.
