Mirror Grass is a perennial succulent herbaceous plant of the Urticaceae Cold Water Flower Genus. It is suitable to use loose, fertile, humus-rich sandy loam soil, and a mixture of garden soil, decomposed leaf soil, and river sand can be used. This species is an important ornamental leaf plant and is widely cultivated in China, making it rare to find its wild populations. Mirror Grass leaves are deep green and glossy, with a golden yellow dot at the central upper part of the leaf where the petiole attaches, hence it is also known as "One-Point Gold". It is relatively cold-tolerant and shade-loving, and should be cultivated in a shaded area, usually used as a potted plant for display.
