    The leaves of Disa racemosa grow in a ground-level tuft. Three to ten narrowly lanceolate leaves become up to 10 cm long. The similarly shaped stem leaves grade down into the floral bracts.

    The photo shows robust leaf growth after a fire in the Robinson Pass between Mossel Bay and Oudtshoorn (Liltved and Johnson, 2012; Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Manning, 2007; Gledhill, 1981; iNaturalist).
