Heads (sessile, clustered in glomerules) in (densely leafy) paniculiform to spiciform arrays 10–20(–30) × 1–4 cm. Involucres globose, 3–4.5 × 3–4.5 mm. Phyllaries lanceolate, margins obscured by indument, hairs straight. Florets: pistillate 5–20; functionally staminate 12–25; corollas pale yellow (broadly tubular), ca. 2 mm, glabrous. Cypselae ellipsoid (faintly nerved), 1–1.5 mm, glabrous.
