Multi-stemmed tree or shrub 3-7 m high, most often with a dense hemispherical crown. The trunk is curved, usually inclined and ribbed. The bark on old branches is light gray, whitish; on annuals - gray and reddish-brown. The roots go 10-12 m deep and extend 20-25 m in width.
The leaves are alternate, usually trifoliate, with 3-7 leaflets. The leaves are dense, smooth, light green, 5-11 cm long, 5-6 cm wide.
Staminate flowers in dense, complex, rather wide panicles, 4-6 cm long; perianth of 3-5 oblong, filmy, unequal leaflets 2-2.5 mm long.
The fruits are large drupes, 0.8–1.5 cm long, 0.6–0.8 cm wide. The pericarp is easily separated (when ripe), cream, yellow-cream, pink, reddish, dark red or dark purple; the intracarp (stone) almost always has an oblique base, usually bluntly keeled on one side. The seed kernels are greenish, edible, and oily.
