Alternate, leathery, whorl-like clustered leaves on evergreen trees and shrubs; small, petal-less, unisexual flowers on separate male and female plants ripen into a small berry-like drupe with a waxy bloom.
Leaves cluster densely near the branch tips in a whorled, almost palm-like rosette, an unusual look for a broadleaf evergreen tree that helps distinguish it at a glance.
To check whether a plant belongs to Daphniphyllaceae, compare the leaf arrangement, leaf type, flower symmetry, fruit type, and one distinctive marker together. A single feature can mislead; the family pattern is the combination.
