An evergreen, rounded shrub or small tree up to 8 m tall. Stems are densely covered in hairs when young, becoming more or less hairless with prominent leaf scars when older.

They are densely hairy on both surfaces when young, becoming more or less hairless above when mature, and are held on long leaf stalks (10-50 cm). Tiny white flowers are held in white, woolly, ball-like clusters on a large, branched stem that extends beyond the foliage. The flowers appear in autumn and are followed by clusters of spherical black berries (3 mm diameter).
