Geogenanthus poeppigii ffcoll-low-light-plants mostly documented from herbarium specimensGeogenanthus poeppigii Deep corrugations run across leaves banded in silver green and dark green, giving the upper surface its strongly puckered texture.

Creeping stems travel close to the substrate and position the blades in a low patch, with new shoots extending sideways from beneath the older rippled foliage.
