Herbs perennial, rhizomatous, rhizomes deeply buried and seldom collected, sparsely pubescent to densely villous, hairs simple, jointed, 1–3 mm. Stems erect, branching infrequently, branches ascending to spreading, 1–3(–4) dm. Leaves petiolate; petiole to 1/3 blade at proximal nodes, appearing ± sessile at distal nodes; blade lanceolate or lanceolate-ovate, (2.5–)4.5–7.5(–9.5) × 1.2–2.5(–4) cm, base rounded and tapering to petiole, margins entire, saliently few-toothed, or repand. Pedicels 8–13(–15) mm, 10–20(–25) mm in fruit. Flowers: calyx 6–10 mm, lobes 2–5(–7) mm; corolla yellow with dark purple-black spots, campanulate-rotate, 14–16 mm; anthers dark purple to blue, rarely yellow, not twisted after dehiscence, (2–)3–3.5 mm. Fruiting calyces loosely enclosing berry, 10-ribbed, (20–)30–50 × 20–30(–35) mm, lobes attenuate. 2n = 24.
