The leaves have a 3 to 8 millimeter long stem. The leaf blade is simple, ovate or ovate-lanceolate, 5 to 8 centimeters long and 1 to 5 centimeters wide, long and pointed, with a rounded or broadly wedge-shaped base and a finely serrate and somewhat rolled-up leaf margin. Three to five pairs of nerves are formed. The upper side of the leaf is loosely covered with four to five-pointed star hairs , the underside is green and loosely covered with ten to 15- pointed star hairs that have an additional central hair on the veins.

The inflorescences are 5 to 10 centimeters long and 3 to 6 centimeters in diameter, many-flowered zymous panicles . The flower stalk is 3 to 5 millimeters long. The flower cup is about 2.5 millimeters long with a diameter of 2 millimeters. The calyx lobes are egg-shaped, about 1.2 millimeters long, 1 millimeter wide and densely covered with yellowish brown star hairs. The petals are white, narrow-oval, 8 to 15 millimeters long and about 6 millimeters wide. The outer stamens are 8 to 10 millimeters long, the two teeth of the stamens are horizontal and do not reach the anthers. The anthers are stalked, elongated and grow between the teeth of the stamens. The inner stamens are shorter than the outer ones, the filaments are bidentate at the tip and rarely tongue-shaped. The three or four styles are longer than the stamens. The capsule fruits are hemispherical, loose star hair and have a diameter of about 4 millimeters. Deutzia crenata flowers from April to May, the fruits ripen from August to October.
