Roots:

Leaves: Leaves simple. Alternate. Blades lanceolate to broadly lanceolate, 6–15 cm long, 0.5–2 cm wide. Surfaces sparsely strigillose and ± inconspicuously glandular punctate. Margins ciliate.

Flowers: Flowers in open, erect or arching, distinctly interrupted racemes, these sometimes arranged in paniculate inflorescences 5–10 cm long. Peduncles glandular punctate, each flower on a glandular punctate. Flowers bisexual (perfect), actinomorphic; pedicels jointed. Tepals (4)5(6), usually petaloid, persistent, greenish white or nearly completely green, 2–2.5 mm long, glandular punctate with yellowish glands. Stamens 3–9, but usually 5, exserted or included; anthers dithecal, opening by longitudinal slits.
