The leaves usually have between five and nine elliptical to egg-shaped leaflets that are Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide, the side leaflets on a petiolule up to Шаблон:Cvt long and the end leaflet on a petiolule sessile or on a petiolule up to Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are arranged in panicles Шаблон:Cvt long and usually include a few male-only flowers. The five sepals are about Шаблон:Cvt long and the five petals are white to cream-coloured, Шаблон:Cvt long and densely hairy on the back and part of the front. Flowering occurs from September to October and the fruit is a woody capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and studded with short, rough points. The seeds are Шаблон:Cvt long and winged.[1][2][3]
