Herbs, perennial, cespitose, glabrous. Stems creeping, much-branched, forming terminal rosettes on branches (primary rosettes usually 1–2.7 cm diam.). Leaves alternate, spreading to ascending, petiolate; blade pale green or blue-green, usually glaucous, oblanceolate to spatulate, laminar, (6–)10–18 × 1–4.5 mm, base petiolelike, with simple, short spur, not scarious, apex obtuse, (surfaces papillose). Flowering shoots erect, simple, 3.5–17.5 cm; leaf blades narrowly oblong to linear, base short-spurred; offsets not formed. Inflorescences cymes, 5–30-flowered, 3-branched; branches erect or only slightly recurved, sometimes forked; bracts similar to leaves, smaller. Pedicels absent. Flowers 4-merous; sepals divergent, distinct, green, linear-lanceolate, unequal, 3.6–6.3 × 0.9–1.6 mm, apex obtuse, (papillose); petals spreading, distinct, white, lanceolate, minutely hooded, 4–9 mm, apex acuminate; filaments white; anthers dark red to almost purple; nectar scales white, subquadrate. Carpels widely divergent in fruit, slightly connate basally, brown. 2n = 28, 44, 45–49.
