Rounded, dense shrub to 0.5 m high. Branchlets ±terete, sometimes with slight decurrent leaf bases, not glandular-verrucose, pubescent with stellate hairs and a few simple, bifid and trifid hairs. Leaves trifoliolate, not glandular-verrucose; petiole 0.5–1 mm long; central leaflet narrowly elliptic to narrowly oblanceolate, 5–10 mm long, 1–2.5 (–3) mm wide, commonly recurved to revolute at margins, sometimes flat, acute; adaxial surface sparsely pilose to pilose with simple and bifid hairs, sometimes only on midrib; abaxial surface moderately hairy with stellate and a few simple hairs, with midrib raised and secondary veins obscure. Inflorescences longer than leaves, usually 3-flowered. Sepals 1.5–2 mm long, slightly glandular-verrucose, with scattered simple and bifid appressed hairs adaxially, with few hairs or with dense stellate hairs abaxially. Petals valvate, 2.5–3 mm long, white to pale pink, with few hairs adaxially, stellate-tomentose abaxially. Filaments with few hairs, slightly glandular-verrucose at apex. Cocci smooth to slightly glandular-verrucose, glabrous or with scattered stellate hairs.
