The highlight of Barleria cristata lies in its showy flowers. The tubular blooms are arranged in clusters, creating a crest-like appearance that gives the plant its distinctive name. The petals exhibit a spectrum of colors, ranging from shades of violet and lavender to pink and white. The combination of tubular structure and varied hues adds an elegant charm to this flowering shrub.

The leaves of Barleria cristata contribute to the overall appeal of the plant. Arranged opposite each other along the stems, the glossy, dark green leaves provide a lush backdrop to the colorful blossoms. The foliage, with its elliptical shape and serrated edges, enhances the plant's visual interest even when not in bloom.
