Inflorescences terminal on lateral twigs, 1-flowered. Flowers scented. Calyx: tube up to 3 mm long; lobes 5-9, subulate. Corolla white, pink-flushed, salver-shaped; tube slender, up to 30 mm long; lobes ± 11, 1/2 tube length. Stamens 2, included; filaments short; anthers ± 3.5 mm long, apiculate. Ovary quadrate, truncate; style exserted; stigma 2-lobed. Flowering time Aug.-May. Fruit a twin berry (one aborting), oblong-globose, black when ripe.
Leaf lamina up to 3 (4·5) x 1·4 (2) cm., but usually much smaller, lanceolate, oblong–elliptic or narrowly ovate, the apex acute to obtuse with minute thickened tip, the base cuneate or tapered; both surfaces glabrous; venation inconspicuous above, midrib more prominent below, lateral nerves few, the basal pair often running almost to the leaf apex; margin of leaf narrowly thickened.

Shrub, 0.45-3.00 m high. Twigs shortly, densely and persistently puberulous. Leaves unifoliolate, rarely 3 times as long as broad, petiole articulate in lower half. Calyx lobes almost as long as to much longer than calyx tube. Flowers single on short pedicels, white, pink-flushed or lobes dorsally brick-red.
Corolla white inside, reddish outside; tube 17–32 mm. long; lobes (6) 9–12, (12·5) 15–18 mm. long, oblong, the apex cuspidate, shortly acuminate or trifid.
Stamens inserted near the top of corolla tube; filaments short; anthers 2·5–4 mm. long, reaching to within 2–4 mm. of base of corolla lobes.
Flowers terminal on short lateral branches, solitary or very rarely in 3–flowered cymes, very sweetly scented; pedicels 2–5 mm. long.
Shrub to 3 m, twigs shortly hairy. Leaves ovate-lanceolate. Flowers 1(-3), terminal, ± 11-lobed, white flushed red outside.

Young shoots minutely puberulous, bark of older twigs pale fawn, splitting longitudinally.
Style either well exserted from tube or c. 5 as long, with bifid stigma of variable form.
Calyx tube 2–3 mm. long, glabrous; lobes 7–12, 2·5–5 mm. long, subulate, hispidulous.
