It is a small evergreen tree, 4 to 12 m (rarely to 20 m) high, with a trunk up to 50 cm diameter. The leaves are scale-like, 2 to 6 mm long and 0.5 mm broad, arranged in decussate whorls of three on very slender shoots 0.7 to 1 mm diameter. The cones are globose, 1 to 2 cm diameter, with six triangular scales, which open at maturity to release the seeds.
