Herbs glabrate to strigillose, sometimes also glandular puberulent in inflorescence. Stems 5–20 (–30) cm. Leaves primarily clustered toward base, 2.5–10 (–13) × 0.3–2 (–2.5) cm; petiole 0–6 cm; blade usually lanceolate to oblanceolate, margins subentire to denticulate. Inflorescences very dense. Flowers: floral-tube 3.5–8 mm; petals white, 4–5 mm. Capsules curved outward, not downward, sometimes ± contorted, tapering abruptly distally, 4-angled, much thickened along angles, 2–3.8 mm diam. near base. Seeds dimorphic.


Phenology: Flowering Feb–May.
Habitat: Sandy slopes and washes, desert scrublands.
Elevation: 80–1300 m.
