Honey-cup exhibits a bushy form with a blend of evergreen and deciduous qualities, depending on the climate. Its leaves are relatively broad and oblong, often measuring 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) in length, with a leathery texture and a frosted, blue-green appearance due to a fine, powdery coating. During the blooming period, it sprouts delicate bell-shaped flowers, typically white, that dangle from the axils of the leaves. The shrub generally reaches a moderate height of about 3-6 feet (90-180 cm) with a similar spread, forming a rounded silhouette.
