Lvs laxly arranged; lamina soft-textured, 3-10 mm. long, orbicular to broadly oval or almost reniform, entire or very obscurely toothed, glab. except sts on lowest part of margins; petiole us. much > lamina, up to 3 cm. long, narrow, sparsely hairy on margins. Infl. apparently cymose, us. of only 2 fls each associated with two lflike bracts. Pedicels short in fl. but elongating to carry fr. well above lvs, hairs few to many, tapering.
