Dwarf, stemless or with a very short stem, rather densely patent-hirtellous, 2-3 cm high. Bulb ovoid, attenuate at the apex, 1.5-2.5 cm long; tunics rough, brown, papery, acute at the apex. Rhizome up to 10 cm long. Leaves 10-30; petioles about 1 cm long; leaflets 3, sessile, linear-oblong or cuneate-oblong, conduplicate, falcate, minutely emarginate, 6-9 mm long, 2-3 mm broad, glabrous above, pubescent beneath, ciliate, the median nerve conspicuous, with numerous inconspicuous blackish-brown calli. Peduncles, 1-fld., numerous (living flowers 1-3), about 5 mm long, rarely longer, with 2 alternate or subopposite subulate ciliate bracts close to the calyx. Sepals lanceolate or ovate-lanceolate, often acuminate, 4-5 mm long, pubescent, ciliate, inconspicuously bicallose at the apex. Corolla glabrous, 1.7-2.2 cm long, rose, white at the throat, with a funnel-shaped yellow tube; petals cuneate or obliquely cuneate, slightly attenuate at the base, with an obscure point on the rounded apex. Filaments, the shorter 3-7 mm, the longer 5.5-11 mm long, unequal, minutely glandular-pilose, edentate, the longest, like the styles, exserted from the corolla tube.
