A much branched shrub, up to 1 m high, rather rigid in the lower parts, with ascending branches. Branchlets wiry, villous. Leaves closely set, 1-2 cm long: lamina erect-spreading, linear-lanceolate, acute, rounded at base, with revolute margins covering a half or more of the lower surface; upper surface tubercled and at first pilose on the margins, about the apex and on the midrib: petiole 1.5-3 mm long. Capitula usually solitary, 1.2-1.8 cm wide, hemisphaeric or orbicular, subtended by several leaves with fulvous hairs. Bracts leaf-like, 4-5 mm long, oblong in the lower half, ovate or lanceolate above, hirsute on the outer surface with buff hairs. Bracteoles similar but shorter and narrower. Flowers shortly stipitate, 5-8 mm long: calyx-tube 1-3 mm deep, narrowly cyathiform, terete, covered outside with retrorse hairs; sepals 1.5-2.5 mm long, ovate, acute, covered on the outer surface by long, ascending, coarse, grey hairs, keeled down the inner surface. Petals inserted at the mouth of the tube, 1-1.5 mm long: lamina ovate, obtuse, cucullate, incurved at the margins, papillose on the outer surface: claw very short, as broad as long. Anthers 1-celled, oblong or linear-oblong in rear view; the cells elliptic-oblong, obtuse, with the posterior margins parallel except where they merge towards the apex. Ovary turbinate, covered with retrorse hairs. Style about 1 mm long, slender. Stigma subclavate, sometimes with 3 connivent-erect lobes, not reaching to the base of the anthers. Fruit about 6 mm long, rotundate, subtrilobed, almost smooth, villous upon the summit, sparsely pubescent on the lower parts, chestnut brown, with a small calyx-base on the top.
