The flying needle flower was a large plant roughly ten feet tall, with a main stem as thick as an arm and six spindle-shaped needle sacs growing symmetrically along its upper half, from its waist to its tip.

These flying needles resembled porcupine quills. In their original form, they were wooden spikes three to five inches long, with spiral grooves along their surfaces.
