Stems spreading, diffusely branched, particularly at base, 10–30 cm, arachnoid-villous or rarely nearly glabrescent. Leaves relatively lax and flaccid; blade deep green, linear-lanceolate, 10–18 × 0.5–1.5 cm (distal leaf blades equal to or narrower than sheaths when sheaths opened, flattened), ± arachnoid-villous as on stems. Inflorescences terminal, solitary, often with axillary, pedunculate inflorescences from distal nodes; bracts foliaceous, similar to leaves in form, ± arachnoid-villous. Flowers violet-scented; distinctly pedicillate; pedicels 2–3 cm, puberulent or pilose with mixed glandular, eglandular hairs; sepals green or suffused with rose or purple, 7–8 mm, pubescent with mixture of glandular, eglandular hairs; petals distinct, bright blue, broadly ovate, not clawed, 13–14 mm; stamens free; filaments bearded. Capsules 5–6 mm. Seeds 2–3 mm; hilum as long as seed. 2n = 12.
