The paired opposite leaves are stalked, broadly ovate with a cordate base and toothed margin. The leaves are sessile and sub-sessile, opposite, ovate, cordate at the base. The anthers are ovate or cordate, two-celled, with cells opening longitudinally. The leaves are large, leathery, ovate or cordate, and often have wavy or saw-toothed edges. The evergreen, dark green, shiny leaves are ovate to cordate in shape. They are usually ovate in shape with a cordate base. Their blades are also ovate, though the bases may be cordate to rounded. The leaves are big and blade-shaped, ovate, light green with cordate base. The basal leaves are ovate, or egg-shaped, with bases that are cordate, or heart-shaped. Leaves, first ovate, after some time become cordate at the base. The opposite leaves are cordate or oval, hairy or tomentose. The pitcher lid or operculum is reniform to cordate and has no appendages. Lesser celandine is a hairless perennial, with spirally-arranged cordate dark-green leaves without stipules.
