The leaves are 0.8-1.2cm long, long oblong to lanceolate. Axils generate a mixture of 2-4 male and female flowers; the male flowers have 4-5 perianth lobes and 4-5 secretory portions, and the female flower's perianth lobes are 6. Female's styles are cleft in three, and the lobes shallowly in two afresh. Bloom time: August-October.
