Leaves tripartite, with long petioles, which are clasping, non-auricuate, usually hispidulous, 5–95 mm. long; leaflets broadly to narrowly ovate, acuminate (rarely obtuse), cuneate to truncate, serrate to crenate, usually sparsely strigose on both surfaces, whitish green beneath; terminal leaflet 8–72 mm. long, with a 1–22 mm. long petiole; lateral leaflets 3–64 mm. long, basally oblique, sessile or with up to 11 mm. long petioles.. Racemes with 5–20 flowers on 4–11 mm. long peduncles, in fruit condensed or lax, 2–16 cm. long; pedicels ascending, 4–30 mm. long with nearly erect siliqua.. Sepals green with white margins, elliptic, 1.4–4.5 mm. long, glabrous.. Petals white to pale violet, spathulate, broadly obtuse, at least twice as long as the sepals, 3.2–9 mm. long and ± 1/3 as broad.. Stamens 6, with linear basally widening filaments; anthers ± 1.5 mm. long.. Ovary cylindrical, with a short narrower style and a rather flat stigma.. Siliqua glabrous, linear, 23–56 mm. long, 1.3–2.5 mm. broad, tapered towards the style, which is 0.6–1.4 mm. long and ± 0.4 mm. broad.. Seeds reddish brown, broadly elliptic or oblong in outline, 1.5–2.5 mm. long, 1.0–1.5 mm. broad, minutely rugose.
