Shrub to 2 m high. Branchlets ±terete, with faint decurrent leaf bases, not glandular-verrucose, pilose with mainly simple and bifid hairs. Leaves trifoliolate; petiole 2–4 mm long; central leaflet narrowly elliptic, elliptic or obovate, 8–21 mm long, 2–6 mm wide, slightly crenulate, ±flat, acute to obtuse, not glandular-verrucose; secondary veins obscure; adaxial surface with few simple hairs along midrib or with a sparse indumentum of simple and bifid hairs; abaxial surface with a sparse indumentum of simple and bifid hairs though a few stellate hairs sometimes also present. Inflorescences usually longer than subtending leaves but sometimes shorter, 1–several-flowered. Sepals very broadly ovate-deltate, 1–1.1 mm long, sparsely pilose adaxially, with sparse stellate hairs abaxially. Petals valvate, c. 3 mm long, white, not obviously glandular, stellate-tomentose both sides. Filaments glabrous or sparsely hairy near tip. Cocci 3–4 mm long, not or slightly glandular-verrucose, glabrous.
Grows in vegetation mats (mainly monocots) on exposed rocky ridges and watercourses surrounded by rainforest, or in open forest of Syncarpia, Callitris, Lophostemon, etc.
