It is a medium-sized evergreen tree growing up to 30 metres (100 ft) tall. The leaves are in decussate opposite pairs, 5–7 cm (2–3 in) long (up to 20 cm (8 in) long on young plants) and 8–12 mm (0.3–0.5 in) broad. The cones are oval, up to 15 cm (6 in) long and 12 cm (5 in) diameter, and disintegrate at maturity to release the winged seeds.[3]
