It can grow up to 8 metres high, and usually flowers in July.
The leaves are alternate, and the very tiny flowers solitary or two or more together, at ends of short branches or in leaf axils.
Bees are attracted to the flowers, often in such large numbers that the buzzing can be heard some distance away.
