The opposite and entire leaves are 1.5-11.5 cm long by 3-15 mm wide, and have branched (dendritic) hairs, and a blistered, puckered surface. There are no bracteoles, but there are bracts which are 3-3.5 mm long. The flowers stalks are 1.5-3 mm long, and have both dendritic and peltate scale hairs. The calyx has five lobes (1.5-2.7 mm long), and is covered in dendritic hairs, and the yellow, white or cream corolla is 4.5-6 mm long, with no dots or stripes in its throat. There are five stamens. The flowering time is uncertain and may be in month of the year. [4]
