Evergreen shrub up to 5 m in height. The diameter is about 20 cm but often branches from the root. The bark is greyish-brown the new branches are brown and sometimes hairy and the second year will cause skin. The leaves are egg-shaped the tip is slightly recessed the base is wedge-shaped and the length is 2 to 4 cm. Leaf quality is thick and hard. The front side is dark green and has a strong luster and the edges have wavy saw blades but the edge of the leaves warps back and is not noticeable. The twigs come out sideways and the leaves are arranged in two rows and spread horizontally. This point is the same as Hisakaki but because of the dense leaves this species has a strong impression. In fall-winter 1-3 flowers bunch in leaf buds and turn downward. The five white petals snuggle up to the point. The fruit is 5 mm in diameter round and ripens black. Almost all leaves are attached to the roots of flowers.
