Leaves basal and cauline; petiole 0.5–3 cm, strigose; basal blade oblanceolate to elliptic or spatulate, 2–8 × 0.5–1.5 cm, thinly strigose and greenish on both surfaces; cauline blade sessile, oblanceolate, 1–5 × 0.2–1 cm, similar to basal blade. Inflorescences 1–3 dm; branches strigose; bracts scalelike, 2.5–8 × 1–3 mm. Peduncles erect, straight or slightly curving upward, 0.5–7 cm, strigose. Involucres turbinate-campanulate to campanulate, 2–4 × 1.5–4 mm, strigose; teeth 0.5–1 mm. Flowers 1.5–2 mm in anthesis, 2.5–3 mm in fruit; perianth reddish purple or maroon, rarely yellow, becoming slightly less reddish in fruit, strigose abaxially; tepals narrowly spatulate to obovate; stamens 2–3 mm; filaments pilose proximally.
