The Annonaceae are woody trees, shrubs and vines comprising about 130 genera and 2,300 species.
The leaves are simple, alternate, lack stipules, and generally are distichously arranged in flat sprays.
Although the 3-merous condition of the perianth that is typical for the family is seen in this species, the gynoecium is exceptional in being syncarpous.
