It is an evergreen perennial
plant forming dense stands, spreading by way of its creeping rhizome, which is sometimes above ground, sometimes underground. Its
stiff leaves grow vertically from a basal rosette. Mature leaves are
dark green with light gray-green cross-banding. The plant exchanges oxygen and carbon
dioxide using the crassulacean acid metabolism process,
which is only present in a small number of plant species. It allows them to
withstand drought. The microscopic pores on the plant's leaves, called the stomata and used to exchange gases, are only opened at night to
prevent water from escaping via evaporation in the hot
sun. As a result, stored oxygen is released at the opening of the stomata at
night, unlike most plants which continuously exchange gases during the day.This
