In the absence of a picture, could you describe the shape and margin of
the leaves.

It has dull pale green accuminate, opposite decussate leaves, with
smooth (entire) edges and sparse pinnate venation. The leaves are
about 3 to 3.5 inches long.

The leaves tend to fold upwards towards the center while curling
downwards at the tips.
