Stems usually 1 per caudex branch, arising from center of rosette, elevated above ground surface on woody base, 0.8–4.5 dm, pubescent proximally, trichomes stalked, 2–4-rayed, to 0.5 mm, mixed with simple ones, to 1 mm, glabrous distally. Basal leaves: blade narrowly oblanceolate, 1–3 mm wide, margins entire, ciliate proximally, trichomes (simple), to 1 mm, surfaces moderately to sparsely pubescent, trichomes stalked, 2–4-rayed, 0.1–0.3(–0.5) mm. Cauline leaves: 3–17(–30), rarely concealing stem; blade auricles 0.5–2.5 mm, surfaces of distalmost leaves glabrous. Racemes 6–20(–35)-flowered, usually unbranched.
