It blooms between September and January producing white flowers.[3] The trunk and main branches have brown to orange brown bark that tends to be papery.[2] The leaves are opposite with a leathery texture and an elliptical shape. The leaf lamina can grow to {{convert|14|cm|in|1}} long and {{convert|8|cm|in|1|abbr=on}} wide with a thick and pale mid-rib. The flowers form in clusters with multiple white stamens later forming fleshy dirty-white fruits with a globular shape and a diameter of around {{convert|6|cm|in|0}}.[1] It is found along watercourses in the Kimberley region of Western Australia where it grows in soils over sandstone.[3] It will not grow well in heavy clay soils but is both cyclone resistant and salt tolerant.[1] It is also found in rainforest areas in the top end of the Northern Territory and in the Cape York Peninsula and North East areas of Queensland as well as in New Guinea.[2] It is found in areas of beach forest at around sea level to rainforests to an altitude of around {{convert|450|m|ft|0}}.[2] The fruit are often eaten by cassowaries and is used as a shade tree for parks and gardens and as a street tree. The wood is millable with a density of approximately 0.69 to 0.96 kg/L.[2] The species was first formally described as Eugenia fortis by the botanist Ferdinand von Mueller in 1865 as part of the work Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae but is 1983 was reclassified into the Syzygium genera by B. Hyland in the work A revision of Syzygium and allied genera (Myrtaceae) in Australia. published in Australian Journal of Botany Supplementary Series.[4] There are two known subspecies:
