Leaves basal and cauline, (3–5, proximal similar to basal); petiole ± flattened, 5–70 mm; blade round or reniform, (3–)5–7-lobed (lobes obtuse), (3–)4.5–6.7(–10.3) mm, slightly fleshy, margins entire, eciliate, surfaces glabrous. Inflorescences 2–3(–5)-flowered, capitate cymes, sometimes solitary flowers, (flowers subsessile), (3–)6.7–9(–19.4) cm, tangled, nonglandular-hairy; bracts petiolate. Flowers (hypanthium V-shaped in longisection, glabrous or sparsely short stipitate-glandular); sepals erect, oblong to ovate, (0.7–1 mm wide), margins eciliate, surfaces abaxially glabrous; petals white to pale purple, not spotted, oblong, (1.7–)3–4.4(–6.2) mm, ± equaling sepals; ovary 1/2 inferior. 2n = 26.
