Intricately branched, bushy shrubs, up to ± 1 m tall and about the same in diam., occasionally wider when scrambling over rocks. Main branches up to 15 mm diam.; secondary and tertiary branches often perpendicular to main branches, stems densely or sparsely tomentose with a dense covering of stalked glands rising above the tomentum. Leaves glandular, mostly adpressed, oblong-lanceolate, up to 3 mm long, slightly gibbous near the apex, somewhat cobwebby or almost glabrous; leaf glands very different from those on stems, up to 0.5 mm in diam., widely spaced and wart-like, glands towards the leaf base much smaller, slender and stalked, very much like glands on stems; gland stalks very short, longer towards leaf bases. Capitula homogamous, discoid, 1-flowered (rarely 2-flowered), in small groups of 5-12 capitula, both lateral and terminal. Receptacle small, conical, bare. Involucral bracts in several rows, the outer bracts short, leafy and glandular, woolly or almost glabrous; the inner bracts brown, scarious, acute, equal to or slightly shorter than the florets. Disc florets ± 3 mm long, deep purple; lobes small, erect, triangular, reflexed at maturity. Cypselas smooth, with ± 10 inconspicuous ribs. Pappus setae ± 20, slightly joined at the base, as long as the corolla. From: Koekemoer, M. 2019.

Capitula in numerous small groups, both lateral and terminal. Involucral bracts in several rows, the outer bracts short leafy and glandular, woolly or almost glabrous; the inner bracts brown, scarious, acute, equalling or slightly shorter than the florets. Pappus of about 20 bristles, slightly joined at the base, equalling the corolla. Corolla tubular, with small, erect, triangular lobes which reflex slightly on the extrusion of the style branches, about 3 mm. long, deep purple. Style branches far exserted at maturity.
