Instead of the typical cylindrical pads, the stems exhibit a broad and flattened appearance with multiple folds and crests.

The stems are typically cylindrical, and in the crested form, they form wavy, contorted patterns. The crests can vary widely in appearance, with some resembling waves and others displaying more intricate folds.
