    The authors consider the class of \(H\)-minimal surfaces that are in the form of graphical strips in the Heisenberg group \({{\mathbb{H}}^1}\). The ratio of the horizontal perimeter measure of a surface ball with an appropriate power of the radius is monotone increasing for balls whose centers are in the center of the group \({{\mathbb{H}}^1}\). As a consequence, the maximum volume growth at infinity for these \(H\)-minimal surfaces is obtained.
