caudex spreading; aerial flowering stems erect, slender, solid, not fistulose, arising at nodes of caudex branches and at distal nodes of short, non-flowering aerial branches, 0.4–4 dm, thinly tomentose to floccose or glabrate. |
erect, 2–17 dm, occasionally finely striated or grooved. |
|
petiole 5–20 cm; blade lanceolate or oblanceolate to oblong, 0.5–20 × 0.3–2.5(–3) cm, tomentose abaxially, less so to floccose or glabrous adaxially. |

5–50(–80) × 5–50 cm; bracts 3, scalelike, usually triangular, 1–5 mm. |
compound-umbellate, 1–3(–6) × 1–5 cm, thinly tomentose to glabrate; bracts: proximal 3–8, lanceolate to narrowly elliptic, 0.5–2 × 0.25–1 cm, distal 3, semileaflike, midway along branch, linear to narrowly lanceolate, 0.7–1 × 0.1–0.25 cm, or ± scalelike below involucre, 1–5 mm. |
0.3–3 cm, thinly tomentose or nearly glabrous. |
|
turbinate to campanulate, 3–7 × 1.5–6 mm; teeth 0.2–0.8 mm. |
1 per node, turbinate to turbinate-campanulate, 3.5–8 × 2.5–4 mm, villous; teeth 5–8, erect, 0.5–2 mm. |
5–15 mm, including (0.5–)1–4(–7) mm stipelike base; perianth yellow, densely white- to silvery-tomentose abaxially; tepals monomorphic, lanceolate to narrowly elliptic; stamens 1.7–2.5 mm; filaments glabrous. |
5–7 mm at anthesis, 6.5–9 mm in fruit, including 0.5–0.8 mm stipelike base, with perianth cream or rarely yellow, suffused with blush of pinkish red to maroon, glabrous, or flowers 4–6 mm, including 1–1.3 mm stipelike base, with perianth pale yellow or rarely yellow, not suffused with blush of color glabrous; tepals slightly dimorphic or monomorphic, broadly ovate or obovate; stamens exserted, 3–5 mm; filaments pilose proximally. |
