The Binder Leaf

The binder leaf likes to be sun grown (unlike the wrapper) and is categorized as the outgoing social type. Binder leaves can also be grown in the shade.

Good binder leaves should:

- Be absorbent, easily capturing air flow

- Be sourced from the centre of the stem

- Have underdeveloped leaf nerviations

- Have moderate elasticity

- Easily lit (burn baby burn, disco inferno!)
