Leaves: basal withering by flowering; cauline margins entire, faces gland-dotted (in pits) and sometimes stipitate-glandular, abaxial glabrous or villous to tomentose. Heads borne singly or in corymbiform arrays, usually at ends of branchlets. Involucres narrowly obconic, 5–6 mm. Phyllaries usually purple-tipped, faces glabrous, stipitate-glandular and gland-dotted; inner scarious. Disc florets 3–10; corollas usually white, sometimes pale lavender (color more intense in tubes); style-branch appendages usually lanceolate, sometimes truncate-penicillate, 0.4–1 mm.
