Leaf blades light green to yellow-green, deltate or elongate-deltate, unlobed or weakly 3-lobed, center lobe sometimes elongate, lobes relatively broad, 3–5(–7) cm, not rugose, rubbery, base cuneate or truncate to cordate, margins entire or crenulate to undulate, surfaces stellate-pubescent. Inflorescences paniculate, crowded, flowers long-interrupted, tip not leafy; involucellar bractlets green to tan. Flowers: sepals 3.5–6.5 mm, spheric in bud; petals red-orange to pale red, 10–17 mm; anthers yellow.
