Stems mostly rather stout, prostrate, or sometimes ascending, 7—15(-35) cm, appressed-and patently pilose or almost tomentose in the young parts with more or less ferrugineous hairs. Leaves more or less distinctly in two rows, rather approximate, oblong or ovate-oblong to elliptic, 5-8 by 2½-4½ mm, rounded at the base, obtuse and mucronulate, or acutish at the apex; hairy like the stem, shortly petioled or sessile. Peduncles at most as long as the leaves, 2-5(-10) mm, hairy like the stems, 1(-2)-flowered. Bracts linear, 1.5-2 mm. Pedicels shorter to longer than the calyx. Sepals lanceolate, acuminate, 2.5-3 mm, pilose. Corolla 6-8(-10) mm diam.
