Perennial evergreen plants. Mostly terrestrial, but epiphytes and hemiepiphytes are found among them.
The rhizome is short.
The stem is absent — the basal leaves form a bunch directly from the soil.

The leaves are oval to lanceolate, entire, with a clearly distinguishable midrib and thin parallel lateral ones. The petiole is elongated, equipped with a sheath to the middle of the length or to the base of the leaf blade, with swollen vessels at the base of the leaf.
The peduncle is equal to or longer than the petiole. The inflorescence is a spadix with a cover at the base. The cover is oblong-elliptical, longer than the spadix, from green to white, does not fall off.
The white cover quickly turns green after flowering. The spadix is sessile to equipped with a leg. Flowers are bisexual, enclosed in two circles of fused perianth petals; stamens 6; ovary three-celled with 1-7 ovules in each cell.
Seeds are curved, smooth.
