Leaves basal; petiole 3–8(–10) cm, sparsely strigose; blade oblanceolate or oblong to elliptic, 4–8 × 1–3 cm, strigose on both surfaces, often slightly less so adaxially. Inflorescences 4–8 dm; branches glabrous, glaucous; bracts semileaflike to scalelike, 1–4(–10) × 1–3 mm. Peduncles erect, straight or curving upward, (1–)2–6(–12) cm, glabrous. Involucres turbinate to turbinate-campanulate, 1.5–4(–4.5) × 1–2.5(–3) mm, glabrous; teeth 0.5–1.5 mm. Flowers (1.5–)2–2.5 mm in anthesis, 3–6 mm in fruit; perianth purple to red or maroon, glabrous; tepals broadly spatulate to obovate; stamens 2–2.5 mm; filaments glabrous. Achenes light greenish brown to brown, (2–)3–5 mm, slightly 3-winged distally, nearly beakless, glabrous. 2n = 40.
