Plants perennial, distinctly and often densely tomentose and/or papillose-pubescent, especially abaxial sides of leaf blades, ocreae, and petioles, with fusiform, vertical rootstock. Stems erect, branched in distal 1/2–2/3, 30–70(–100) cm. Leaves: ocrea deciduous or partially persistent at maturity; blade oblong-lanceolate, 20–30 × 5–10 cm, base cordate to broadly cuneate, margins entire, repand, flat or crisped, apex acute or attenuate. Inflorescences terminal, occupying distal 1/2–2/3 of stem, interrupted in proximal 1/2, paniculate, branched. Pedicels articulated in proximal 1/3, filiform, distinctly swollen in distal part (near base of tepals, but not at articulation point), 4–14 mm, articulation weakly evident, not swollen. Flowers 10–20 in whorls; inner tepals oblong-ovate, 4–6 × 3–5 mm, base rounded to subcordate, margins entire, apex obtuse or subacute; tubercles absent. Achenes mature specimens not seen. 2n = 120.
Phenology: Flowering spring–summer.
Habitat: Seasonally wet habitats along streams
Elevation: 2500 m
Discussion
Rumex tomentellus is known only from New Mexico and needs additional study. It may represent one of the southern North American elements of the R. aquaticus–R. occidentalis aggregate.
