Its flowers are very small, elongated, narrow, tubular, green, and yellowish and grow in clusters. Each flower has five long pointed petals.

The fruits are spherical and almost the size of a small orange. These fruits are green at first, but after fully ripening, they turn orange and sometimes red.
