Erect to decumbent, much-branched, non-aromatic, viscid shrub, up to 1 m high and 1.25 m in diameter. Stems herbaceous when young but soon becoming woody, with numerous glandular hairs and long soft hairs in between, green but becoming wine-red and eventually brown with age. Leaves glabrescent to sparsely strigose and with glandular hairs, green but the larger veins adaxially often dark purple; lamina ovate in outline, pinnatipartite to pinnatisect with the segments irregularly incised, base cuneate to obtuse, apices of segments acute, margins coarsely dentate and with short conical hairs, (20-)35(-50) x (15-)25(-40) mm; petiole 10-20 mm long; stipules triangular, cuspidate to subulate, sparsely hispid with glandular hairs interspersed, 6-8 x 2-4 mm. Inflorescence: flowering branches with normal and smaller foliar leaves; peduncles 5-25 mm long, distinctly articulated at distal and proximal ends in infructescences, with glandular hairs and long soft hairs in between; involucral bracts ovate, apiculate, with glandular hairs and long soft hairs on the margins, 3-5 x 3-4 mm; pseudo-umbels with 1-2 flowers each. Pedicel 1-2 mm long. Hypanthium 6-10 mm long, with many glandular hairs. Sepals lanceolate, cuspidate, abaxially with many glandular hairs, green to wine-red, ±10 x 4-5 mm. Petals pale pink to pink; posterior two spathulate, apices obtuse to emarginate, with a dark pink blotch and purple markings, reflexed at ±90°, 15-25 x 5-8 mm; anterior three spathulate with long narrow claws, slightly reflexed, ±12-20 x 4-6 mm.
