Shrubs, erect, 1–3 m; burl absent; twigs glabrous, sparsely short-hairy, or densely glandular-hairy. Leaves: petiole 5–12 mm; blade white-glaucous, dull, ovate to ± orbiculate, 2–5 × 2–4 cm, base rounded, truncate, or ± lobed, margins entire or ciliate, plane, surfaces smooth-papillate, rough, scabrous, glabrous or sparsely puberulent. Inflorescences panicles, 4–7-branched; immature inflorescence pendent or ascending, branches spreading, axis 1–3 cm, 1+ mm diam., densely glandular, (sticky); bracts appressed, (glaucous), scalelike, deltate, 3–4 mm, apex acute to acuminate, surfaces viscid-glandular (rarely minutely stipitate-glandular) or glandular-hairy, especially along margins. Pedicels 6–10 mm, finely to densely glandular-hairy. Flowers: corolla white, conic to urceolate; ovary glabrous or glandular-hairy. Fruits depressed-globose, 6–8 mm diam., glabrous or sparsely to densely glandular-hairy, (sometimes viscid). Stones distinct.
