Herbs annual or biennial, villous, at least proximally, glabrous or even glaucous distally, rarely glandular puberulent. Stems virgate with numerous divergent branches, 20–150 cm. Leaves primarily in well-developed basal rosette, cauline reduced or absent, 6–30 × 1.4–6.5 cm; petiole 0.3–6 cm; blade pinnately or bipinnately lobed, terminal lobe ovate to elliptic, 2.5–6.5 × 1.5–3 cm, margins irregularly serrate, dark brown oil cells prominently lining veins abaxially. Racemes erect to nodding, elongating in bud. Flowers opening at sunrise; buds individually reflexed, with apical or slightly subapical free tips less than 1 mm; floral tube 1–3 mm, glabrous or villous inside proximally; sepals 3–8 mm; petals usually bright yellow, rarely cream, fading yellow to lavender, 4–9 mm; stamens unequal, filaments of antisepalous stamens 2.5–4 mm, those of antipetalous ones 1.3–3 mm, anthers 2–4 mm, ciliate; style 7–11 mm, stigma exserted beyond anthers at anthesis. Capsules usually spreading, rarely slightly reflexed, oblong-cylindrical, 10–52 mm; pedicel 7–20 mm. Seeds 1–1.3 mm. 2n = 14.
Phenology: Flowering Mar–Jun(–Sep).
Habitat: Forming colonies on rocky slopes and banks of eroded sedimentaries, on gypsum or limestone, on conglomerates, often with Juniperus and Pinus edulis, with Encelia farinosa and Larrea.
