Shrubs, erect and branched from near base, forming cushion, or decumbent and matted, 0.5–2 dm. Stems: internodes 4-lined at first, soon 2-winged. Leaf blades elliptic or oblong-linear to narrowly obovate or oblanceolate, 3–10 × 1–3 mm, base not articulated, rounded to cuneate, without glandlike auricles, margins plane to subrecurved, apex obtuse, midrib unbranched. Inflorescences 1-flowered, often with pseudodichotomous branches from apical node, without proximal branches; pedicels mostly recurved to reflexed in fruit, bracteoles proximal. Flowers 10–15 mm diam.; sepals persistent, enclosing capsule, (2 or) 4, unequal, outer broadly ovate to broadly elliptic, 4–8 × 4–8 mm, apex obtuse to rounded, inner none or minute; petals 4, pale yellow, narrowly obovate, often unequal, 4–8 mm; stamens persistent, 30; ovary 2-merous. Capsules cylindric-ellipsoid, 3–5 × 2–3 mm. Seeds scarcely carinate, 1 mm; testa finely reticulate. 2n = 18.


Phenology: Flowering spring–early summer (Mar–Jun).
Habitat: Dry, open, sandy pinelands, coastal plain
