Beilschmiedia miersii is a perennial tree that can grow taller than 25 meters in its native tropical environment, though it typically does not attain such heights when cultivated in the U.K. Its leaves measure between 5 and 12 centimeters in length, characterized by an ovate shape, a leathery texture, and a glossy green surface, with a pale, glaucous underside. When crushed, the leaves emit a camphor fragrance. The small yellowish flowers, which are covered in fine hairs, are arranged in panicles that can reach up to 6 centimeters long. These flowers may develop into ellipsoid fruits, measuring up to 4 centimeters, that start off mottled yellow and eventually turn brown.
