    Plants 25–150 cm;
    rhizomes short to long creeping, forming few to many-stemmed clones.
    Stems 1–25 (–50+), erect, proximally glabrous or sparsely to moderately canescent-villous, distally densely so.
    proximal cauline sessile, blades narrowly to broadly oblanceolate, 100–150 × 15–23 mm, tapering to bases, margins subentire to coarsely sharply serrate, 3-nerved, sometimes obscurely so, apices acute to acuminate, abaxial faces glabrate to sparsely short-villous, adaxial glabrous;
    mid to distal cauline sessile, blades lanceolate to narrowly elliptic, (50–) 90–120 (–150) × (7–) 11–23 (–35) mm, largest near mid-stem, then somewhat reduced distally in arrays, margins sharply and coarsely to finely serrate or entire, usually becoming less serrate near arrays, faces glabrous or sparsely strigoso-villous, more so along abaxial nerves, distalmost (below arrays) sometimes sparsely to moderately minutely stipitate-glandular.
    Heads 14–800+, in sometimes secund, broadly thyrsiform or secund pyramidal arrays, usually leafy proximally, branches ascending or sometimes arching-spreading, leaves often minutely stipitate-glandular.
    Peduncles 1–4 mm, villoso-hirtellous, sometimes minutely stipitate-glandular;
    bracteoles 0–2, linear-lanceolate, sometimes minutely stipitate-glandular.
    Involucres campanulate, (2–) 2.3–3.8 (–5) mm.
    Phyllaries in 3–4 series, deltate-lanceolate, unequal (outer 1/4–1/2 length of inner), margins sparsely villoso-ciliate, sometimes minutely stipitate-glandular apically or basally, apices acute to attenuate, glabrous or sparsely to moderately, minutely stipitate-glandular apically, sometimes over much of faces.
    Ray-florets (7–) 10–16 (–22);
    laminae (0.5–) 0.9–1.6 (–2.2) × ca. 0.2–0.5 mm.
    Disc-florets (2–) 5–9 (–13);
    (2–) 2.5–3.8 (–5) mm, lobes (0.4–) 0.6–1 (–1.4) mm.
    Cypselae (narrowly obconic) 0.6–1.2 mm, strigillose;
    pappi 2.5–3.3 mm.
