Herbs or subshrubs. Stems ascending to erect, 10–30(–50) cm, stellate-pubescent, glabrescent. Leaves cauline; petiole 1–5 mm; blade bicolor, obovate-elliptic to elliptic-lanceolate, 12–35(–47) × 3–10(–13) mm, base cuneate, apex obtuse, surfaces stellate-pubescent, lateral veins raised abaxially. Inflorescences terminal, compound dichasia in corymbiform cymes; chasmogamous flowers 1–6 per dichasium, overtopping cleistogamous, cleistogamous 10–45 per dichasium, produced simultaneously.

Discussion
Crocanthemum corymbosum is unique in Crocanthemum because of its corymbose inflorescence of long-pedicelled petaliferous flowers overtopping subsessile, apetalous flowers. Other species may produce long-pedicelled petaliferous flowers; the inflorescence shape is different. The two flower types develop synchronously, unlike in other species except C. glomeratum. The bicolored leaves, dark adaxially and pale abaxially, are a strong field and herbarium character.
