Description
It can be distinguished by its long, smooth, slender, ascending, sharp pointed leaves. It sometimes develops a short ascending stem.
Young plants have distichous, strap shaped leaves. In mature plants, the upper surface of the leaves becomes channeled and concave, while the lower surface becomes convex with a keel. Leaves are smooth and dark green, with white spots in bands.

gollark: Actually, you may want to use LoRa directly and just fix it at a low data rate or something, not LoRaWAN. I've never actually used it, I just know it seems a reasonable option for this.
gollark: The range isn't anywhere near as good as you would get with some sort of high-powered HF transceiver, but you can skip the legal wotsits, and LoRaWAN stuff is available as cheap modules IIRC.
gollark: Er, LoRaWAN.
