Rosette-lvs few, 8-15 × 1-2 cm., lamina elliptic-oblong, very gradually tapering into long winged petiole, tip acuminate to mucronate; hairs short, fine, appressed, not overlapping, on undersurface similar but fewer, longer on sheathing If-bases. Lateral branches erect, 15-40 cm. long, internodes mostly < lvs. Stem-lvs few, uppermost c. 25 X7 mm., ± oblong, subacute; hairs as on rosette-lvs but longer. Cymes simple, ebracteate, c. 12-fld; internodes > calyx in fr.; pedicels c. 2 mm. long. Calyx 5-6 mm. long, lobes > 1/2 length, narrow, acute; hairs crowded, on lobes long and flexuous, towards base shorter and some hooked. Corolla yellow (fide Cheeseman), 8-10 mm. diam., tube funnelform and 5-7 mm. long, lobes c. 4 × 3 mm., ± oblong; filaments fixed about level of scales, anthers c. 2 mm. long, wholly above scales; style very slender, > 2 × calyx in fr., stigma capitate. Nutlets not seen.

Rosette loose; lvs ± elliptic; hairs short, fine, appressed, not overlapping, abaxially similar but fewer. Lateral branches erect; lvs few, mostly > internodes. Cymes simple, ebracteate; internodes > calyx at fruiting. Corolla yellow, to 10 mm diam.; tube funnelform; filaments short; anthers wholly above scales.
