    Rootstocks erect to horizontal, irregularly thickened, 1–8 cm.
    Stems mostly ascending to erect, not flagelliform, openly branched, not rooting at nodes, (0.5–) 1–5 (–7) dm.
    Basal leaves ephemeral, usually ternate, 2–15 cm;
    petiole (1–) 3–13 cm, long hairs sparse to common, appressed, 0.5–1 mm, stiff, glands absent;
    leaflets 3 (–5), central ± obovate to cuneate, (0.5–) 1–2 × (0.3–) 1–1.5 cm, distal 1/2–2/3 of margin incised ± 1/3 to midvein, teeth 2–4 per side, surfaces similar, green (abaxial sometimes paler), glabrate or sparsely to moderately hairy.
    Cauline leaves (0–) 1–3 (–7) proximal to 1st flowering node, expanded at anthesis, usually ternate, rarely palmate (or appearing so because of leafletlike stipules), (0.5–) 1–3 cm;
    petiole usually 0 cm;
    leaflets 3 (–5), usually much narrower than those of basal leaves, narrowly cuneate to oblanceolate, (0.5–) 1–3 × (0.2–) 0.5–1 cm, distal 1/3–2/3 of margin incised ± 1/2 to midvein, teeth 2–4 (–6) per side, apex usually obtuse to acute.
    Inflorescences 3–30-flowered, cymose, open.
    Pedicels (1–) 2–3 (–5) cm.
    Flowers 4 (–5) -merous;
    epicalyx bractlets ovate to narrowly elliptic, 1.5–4 × 0.5–1 mm, much smaller than to sometimes equal to sepals;
    hypanthium 1.5–2.5 mm diam.;
    sepals (2–) 3–5 mm, apex broadly acute;
    petals (2–) 4–6 × (1.5–) 3–6 mm, apex ± retuse;
    stamens 15–20, filaments 2–3.8 mm, anthers 0.4–0.6 mm;
    carpels 4–8 (–20), styles 0.9–1.4 mm.
    2n = 28 (Eurasia).
