The trunk is straight with relatively smooth dark grey or brown outer bark with some fissures and wrinkles. Young branchlets are densely covered with woolly-brownish or velvety hairs. The leaves are lance-shaped to elliptic, or egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, mostly Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The leaves are mid to dark green above, paler below and the edges have regular teeth. The flowers are pendent and arranged in racemes Шаблон:Cvt long with up to seven flowers on softly-hairy, robust pedicels Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers have five narrow triangular sepals about Шаблон:Cvt and Шаблон:Cvt wide, densely hairy on the back.
