Erect, caulescent, more or less pubescent, sometimes with gland-tipped hairs admixed, 3-30 cm high. Bulb ovoid or oblong-ovoid, acute or attenuate at the apex, usually 1.5-2.5 cm long, with rather thin brown tunics. Rhizome sometimes producing lateral underground stolons. Stem 1-20 cm long, robust or slender, rarely branched, with pilose amplexicaul scales and sometimes a few subsessile leaves or abortive leafy branchlets. Leaves terminally clustered; petioles as long as or longer than the leaflets, the outer often short, squamiform and sometimes indistinctly rubro-callose on the margins; leaflets 3, sessile, from oblong to linear or in shade plants sub-elliptical or obovate-oblong, often conduplicate and slightly falcate, emarginate, commonly 0.6-1.2 cm long, glabrous above, adpresso-pilose and rarely with gland-tipped hairs on the midrib beneath, ciliate with both spreading and introrse hairs, inconspicuously pustulate with callose dots and rarely with 2 or more elongate apical calli. Peduncles 1-fld., terminal or rarely cauline, often 2-5 cm long, with 2 small alternate linear bracts towards the calyx. Sepals lanceolate, 3-7 mm long, pubescent, ciliate, often rather dull red along the margins. Corolla 1.3-3 cm long, rose-red, lilaceous, white or salmon-pink, with a bright yellow funnel-shaped tube; laminae of the petals obovate, about as long as the attenuate claw. Filaments minutely glandular-pilose, the longer edentate. Ovary pubescent on the upper half, with orange-red calli at least on the upper part, the chambers 2-5-ovuled; styles pilose with both simple and gland-tipped hairs. Seeds without endosperm.
