Lvs. alternate: fls. dioecious or perfect, numerous and small, in terminal spiciferous panicles; parts of fl. 5, spreading under the succulent indehiscent fr.; stamens 5, united into a ring.

The plant offered as D. variegata, described as a slender-growing shrub that will climb if shoots are trained up, long spikes of white fls., and lvs. margined with white, is probably a form of this species, or it may be Bosea Amherstiana (D.
