Description

The broad, oblong leaves of Protea eximia with erect, pointed tips have incurving blades, at least near the stem-tips.

The pale creamy-yellow leaf midribs link with spaced, ascending lateral veins that nearly reach the margins visibly.

The leaf margins are faintly yellow, even pinkish with tiny dark patches at the tips (Coates Palgrave, 2002; Leistner, (Ed.), 2000; Rourke, 1980).
