These Ormocarpum trichocarpum leaves show smooth, leathery leaflet surfaces and notched tips. There are pale midribs along which the thickish blades fold in very slightly. The occasional lateral vein is visible, mostly not. Leaf rachises have short white hairs. Leaflets are angled up from the rachises.

There are longish leaf petioles and short leaflet petiolules (Coates Palgrave, 2002).
