The leaves have 10–18 pairs of secondary veins emanating from their midribs. Its densely hairy petioles are 2–8 by 1–3 millimeters with a broad groove on their upper side. Its Inflorescences are solitary and are organized on indistinct peduncles. Each inflorescence has 1 flower. Each flower is on a densely hairy pedicel that is 4–25 by 0.2 millimeters. The pedicels have a medial, densely hairy bract that is 0.3–0.5 millimeters long. The flowers are unisexual. Its flowers have 3 triangular sepals, that are 0.5–2 by 1–1.5 millimeters.

The upper surfaces of the inner petals are mostly hairless. The lower surfaces of the inner petals are hairless to densely hairy. Male flowers have up to 18 stamens that are 0.5 by 0.5 millimeters. Female flowers have up to 2 carpels that are 1.9–2.1 by 1.4–1.5 millimeters. Each carpel has 5–6 ovules arranged in a single row. The fruit occur on densely hairy pedicles that are 17–22 by 1–2.5 millimeters. The mature fruit are elliptical and 3.9–4.2 by 1.9–4.1 centimeters. The mature are orange, smooth, and densely hairy. Each fruit has up to 5–6 seeds arranged in a row. The smooth, hemispherical seeds are 10–13 by 6–8 by 3–5 millimeters.[5]
