Herbaceous, taproot becoming woody, up to 10 mm diam., flowering initially in the seedling stage, then stems solitary, simple, erect, later branching from the base and surviving for more than one season, these stems either simple or branched, decumbent or ascending, becoming woody at the base with small vegetative buds but never with a thick clump of vegetative buds, up to c. 450 mm long, hairy with ± retrorse or spreading white hairs, leafy, often with axillary leaf tufts. Leaves spreading, mostly 15-50(-60) x 2-8(-15) mm, linear, oblong, or narrowly elliptic, rarely broadly elliptic, base sometimes petiole-like, margins entire or with a few small callose teeth, or occasionally more coarsely toothed, thinly hairy. Flowers opening at dusk or in dull light and then emitting a spicy fragrance, spike initially condensed, often few-flowered, elongating in fruit. Bracts adnate to calyx for 2.5-5 mm, 15-20(-30) mm long, lanceolate, entire or with 1 or 2 pairs of teeth near the apex, hairy. Calyx 7-13 mm long, lips 3.5-6 mm long, hairy. Corolla tube 27-50 mm long, glandular-puberulous, hairs up to 0.1-0.2 mm long, limb held horizontally, regular; mouth with circlet of long unicellular hairs; lobes deeply notched, 5-10 mm long, crimson and glandular-puberulous outside, white inside, glabrous or sometimes with a few minute glandular hairs near the base. Stamens 4, 2 anticous anthers 1.5-2.2 mm long, shortly exserted, 2 posticous ones 2.6-3.5 mm long, included. Stigma 5-10 mm long. Capsule 8-11 x 4-5 mm.
