Cotoneaster comprises either deciduous or evergreen shrubs and small trees. The foliage consists of simple, whole leaves, while spring and summer bring clusters of small white or pink blooms. These flowers are succeeded by prominent berries that may be red, purple, or black.

Cotoneaster ogisui is a substantial shrub or diminutive tree characterized by its broad, shiny green foliage that shifts to shades of gold, yellow, and orange as autumn arrives. In summer, it produces white blooms, which are succeeded by sizable, vivid red berries in the fall. While it is predominantly deciduous, in particularly mild regions of the UK, it may retain its leaves year-round.
