The leaves have petioles 3–7.5 mm long and blades 10–19.9 cm long, 3–5.8 cm wide, narrowly elliptic, with an acute to acuminate apex and a subcoriaceous texture. The flowers are bisexual, with 9 perianth parts in 3 whorls, and 1 to 2 flowers per inflorescence. The sepals are 9–13 mm long, ovate, and densely pubescent outside.
