Lax, many-stemmed shrub up to 2 m high, rarely small tree up to 4 m with pendulous pale branches. Bark smooth; young branches tomen-tose or glabrescent. Leaves trifoliolate, petiolate; petiole shallowly canaliculate above, pilose or glabrous, (5—)16(—37) mm long; leaflets subses-sile, subcoriaceous, glabrous, dark green above, pale olive below, hypostomatous; lamina elliptic to narrowly elliptic, base cuneate to attenuate, apex acute, mucronulate; margin entire, weakly revolute; venation somewhat kladodromous; midrib yellow, prominent below, impressed above, other veins impressed above and below; terminal leaflets (12-)36(-60) x (3-)12(-19) mm, lateral leaflets (7-)23(-40) x (3-)9(-18) mm. Panicles numerous, relatively short (up to 50 mm long), mostly axillary, also terminal. Flowers normal.

Shrub or small tree up to 7 m. tall, often thorny, with the young branches brownish and patent-hairy, the oldest ones greyish. Petiole c. half as long as the median leaflet or shorter, slender, terete, pubescent, slightly furrowed above. Leaflets glaucous (when dried pale greenish, slightly darker above), submembranous, entire or with some teeth, appressed-pilose or sometimes densely sericeous, at times nearly glabrous; median leaflet 3–8 × 1–2·3 cm., oblanceolate to elliptic, narrowing at both ends, acute at the apex, cuneate at the base, the lateral ones elliptic, narrower and shorter than the median or ± equal to it; midrib and lateral nerves slender, raised on both surfaces, more so below, reticulation very close, visible on both surfaces. Panicles terminal and axillary, large, pubescent; flowers glomerulate. Calyx-segments 0·5–0·75 mm. long. Petals oblong, 1·25–1·5 mm. long. Drupe c. 3 mm. in diam., subglobose, slightly compressed.

Nowhere plentiful, this species occurs along forest verges in a number of disjunct localities from the north-eastern TransÂvaal and eastern Transvaal through Swaziland, Zululand and Natal to Transkei. Flowering recorded in December and JanuÂary. Map 5.
Slender to fairly dense shrub from 1,5 to 2 m high with a vegetative and floral morphology similar to R. transvaalensis (no. 4). Bark and young branchlets are, however, always smooth and glabrous and the leaflets narrowly elliptic to oblanceolate and prominently paucidentate to pauciserrate with each tooth mucronate. Petiole (8—)15(—32) mm long; terminal leaflets (18-) 38(-70) x (3-)14(-30) mm, lateral leaflets (13-)25(-51) x (3-)10(-20) mm. Drupe 3,0x 2,4 to 4,2 x 3,8 mm.
