    clonal and clumped, eglandular;
    rhizomes creeping to ascending, scaly, woody with age.
    Stems 1–5+, usually ascending, sometimes decumbent, often purplish, sometimes branched basally, flexuous, proximally sparsely villous, distally usually densely villous, sometimes lanate.
    Leaves: cauline (dark green abaxially, paler grayish green adaxially), firm, ± markedly veined, margins coarsely and sometimes irregularly serrate, sometimes (distal) serrulate or entire, villoso-ciliate, teeth mucronate, slightly incurved, apices obtuse to acute, mucronate, abaxial faces glabrescent to scabridulous, sparsely villous along veins, adaxial sparsely to ± densely villous or villoso-strigose;
    proximal winged-petiolate to sessile, petiole bases sheathing, blades spatulate, obovate to oblanceolate, or ovate (smaller than mid), 9–50 × 3–22 mm, bases attenuate to tapering and (in sessile) subclasping;
    mid short-petiolate to subpetiolate or sessile, blades lanceolate to lanceovate, oblong to oblanceolate, or obovate to spatulate, 25–95 × 6–35 mm, gradually reduced distally, bases rounded or subauriculate to widely attenuate or cuneate;
    distal (arrays) sessile, lanceolate, lanceovate, or elliptic to oblanceolate, 8–60 × 1–12 mm, rapidly reduced distally.
    Heads 1–50, borne singly or in open corymbiform arrays.
    Peduncles villous;
    bracts 0–3, sometimes immediately subtending heads, lanceolate or spatulate to linear-lanceolate, leaflike or phyllary-like distally (bases indurate, margins purplish), mostly foliaceous, villous.
    Involucres campanulate, 6–9 mm, shorter than pappi.
    Phyllaries 30–80 in 3–4 (–5) series, sometimes wholly purplish, usually ± oblong-lanceolate to oblanceolate, sometimes linear-lanceolate (innermost), subequal or ± unequal, membranous, bases indurate, ± rounded, dark green zones lanceolate or truncate at base, in distal 1/3–4/5+ (outer, often foliaceous, sometimes bractlike and surpassing involucres) to 1/4–2/3 (inner), margins hyaline, often purplish, narrowly scarious, erose, densely villoso-ciliate, apices squarrose, acute, apiculate, faces villous.
    Ray-florets 12–50;
    corollas white to pale violet or purple, 7–17.5 × 0.8–1.8 mm.
    Disc-florets 25–125;
    corollas yellow becoming purplish, 5–8.1 mm, slightly ampliate, tubes longer than funnelform throats, lobes erect, triangular, 0.5–1.1 mm.
    Cypselae brown, fusiform, compressed, 2.5–3.7 mm, ribs 7–10 (stramineous), faces strigillose;
    pappi of dark cinnamon or reddish tan (sometimes apically clavellate) bristles 5.5–7.5 mm, ± equaling disc corollas.
