===Leaf===
{{Leaf|Simple|alternate|8-23 x 3-13 cm, obovate, obovate-oblong, or elliptic-ovate, apex acute or obtuse, base acute, round or cuneate, margin entire, glabrous and shining above and scabrous beneath; lateral nerves 6-8 pairs, pinnate, prominent, arched, intercostae scalariform, prominent; stipules 3-5 cm long, lateral, ovate-lanceolate, sheathing, glabrous, cauducous; petiole 20-40 mm long, stout, grooved above, glabrous. }}<ref name="Leaf"/>
===Flower===
{{Flower|Unisexual|Spikes|Greenish yellow|1|male from young branches, catkin narrow-cylindric; perianth 2-lobed, puberulous; stamen 1; filament somewhat flattened, stout; anthers ovate-oblong; female catkins from the trunk and mature branches, more massive, perianth with strongly projecting conical apex; ovary 0.3 mm, superior, globose-obovoid; style exserted; stigma spathulate. }}
===Fruit===
{{Fruit|Sorosis|30-45 x 20-25 cm||Oblong, tuberculate, tubercles conical yellowish-green, fruiting perianth yellow to light orange, fleshy|Seeds 10-12 x 8-10 mm, elliptic-oblong, smooth, glossy.}}

==How to plant/cultivate==
Seed - under suitable conditions, germination begins within 10 days, and 80-100% germination is achieved within 35-40 days after sowing. The seed quickly loses viability and so should be sown as soon as possible. Seedlings produce a long taproot and can be difficult to transplant, so it is best to pot them up into deep pots as soon as they are large enough to handle and to plant them out into their permanent positions as soon as possible. The seed germinates best at a temperature of 24 - 27c.
