A shrubby tree to 12 m in wet sclerophyl and dry rainforest. This is one of the less well-known of our Enoggera species and one well worth cultivating. The young shoots are covered with fine hairs giving them a brown velvety appearance. Leaves are opposite, sometimes in threes, with very distinct veins, oil dots and pleasantly aromatic when crushed. In the same family as Eucalypts and Syzygiums.

Flowers
White flowers in spring and summer. The fruit is edible, though not highly thought of, being very ordinary tasting and filled with wedge-shaped seeds. Seeds can be sown fresh with the pulp, germinating in about six weeks. Cuttings strike easily.
