A virgate shrublet, 15-40 cm high. Stems few or many, erect, unbranched except in the inflorescence, the younger hairy. Leaves dark green, alternate, not fasciculate, appressed-ascending, linear-lanceolate, 4-8 mm long, about 1 mm wide, the edges revolute to the midrib, with 1-2 sharp teeth near the base. Inflorescence contracted, a simple or compound raceme-like panicle with ascending branches, often secund. Pedicels shortly hairy, 2-12 mm long. Calyx lobes acute, 2.5 mm long, revolute. Corolla blue or white internally blue outside, 5 mm long, glabrous or hairy, the tube very short. Bases of the filaments rhombic, as wide as long, ciliate on the upper edges. Style gradually thickened to the 3-fid stigma. Ovary hemispherical or turbinate, 1-1.5 mm long. Fruit 10-ribbed, the valves less than half as long as the calyx lobes.
