We define a leaf which is a domain in the closure $\overline{\mathfrak{H}}=\mathfrak{H}\cup\mathbb{R}\cup\{\infty\}$ of the complex upper half plane $\mathfrak{H} = \{z\in\mathbb{C}\mid{\mathrm{Im}\,} z>0\}$ for any endomorphism of a real inner product space. If the dimension of the base space is at least 3, the leaf is convex on the Poincar\'e metric, and contains all eigenvalues with nonnegative imaginary part. If the endomorphism is normal, the leaf is the minimum convex domain in $\overline{\mathfrak{H}}$ containing all eigenvalues with nonnegative imaginary part. We apply the geometric properties of a leaf to the operator norm and to some algebraic properties on endomorphisms.
