Description

Tacca bibracteata has 6-7 entire oblong leaves with attenuate bases and acuminate apices, and pinnate nerves. It has four to many filiform bracts, and just two involucral bracts, and it is this characteristic which gives the species epithet, bibracteata. The apparently solitary inflorescence has up to ten flowers which are green and tinged with violet or very dark purple.
