Following is the description from Flora of India: *Ilex odorata * Evergreen trees, 5-7 m tall; bark brownish grey, smooth, covered with white streaks. Leaves elliptic-oblong, lanceolate or oblong-lanceolate, 3-8 x 1.5-3 cm, apex acute to shortly caudate-acuminate,acumen 5-17 mm long, margin serrate, coriaceous, shining above, pale below, base acute, cuneate; lateral nerves 7-9 pairs, slender; petioles ca 0.7 cm long, channelled; stipules 2, 0.5-0.75 mm long, caducous. Male inflorescence in axillary corymbose cymes. Flowers 4-5-merous, white; bracts small, caducous. Peduncles 0.5- 3 mm long, pedicels 1-4 mm long. Calyx 1.75-2 mm broad; lobes ovate, rounded, deltoid. Petals oblong-lanceolate, 2.5-3 x 1-2 mm, united below. Stamens longer than petals; anthers ellipsoid. Female inflorescence fascicled or crowded on short axillary branches; pedicels 2-6 mm long, Staminodes shorter than petals.
