Calyx shorter than corolla tube; tube verrucose towards base and with wart-like basal processes; lobes triangular, acute. Corolla campanulate; lobes nearly as long as tube, erect to spreading, oblong-or ovate-lanceolate, acute to acuminate, with inflexed tips. Stamens shorter than corolla lobes; filaments ± as long as anthers. Scales oblong-ovate or obovate, much fimbriated, ± equalling corolla tube. Ovary globose; styles slender, equalling ovary or slightly longer, often somewhat unequal. Capsule ovoid or globose, somewhat contracted and roughened around style bases, not circumscissile. Seeds subglobose, somewhat flattened, ±1.5 mm long; hilum oblong, longitudinal.
