Most are shrubs‚ but again‚ a diverse range of growth forms from epiphytes to trees exists. The leaves can be either deciduous or evergreen‚ ovate to lanceolate. The flowers are bell-shaped; white‚ pale pink or red‚ sometimes tinged greenish. The fruit is a berry 5-16 millimeters in diameter with a flared crown at the end; they are pale green at first‚ then reddish purple
