A small evergreen tree. It grows 6 m high. The stem is 30 cm across. The branches are often held horizontally. The leaves are on short, thick, rigid small branches. They are broadly oval and 7-16 cm long by 3-7 cm wide. They taper to the base. They are dark green and shiny above and more pale underneath. The midrib is yellow. The flowers are white or cream and 1 cm long. They are in clusters of 2-4 flowers. These are in the axils of leaves at the ends of branches. The fruit are oval and have sepals around the base. They are green but ripen to red.
