Shrub 0.4-2 m tall, erect to decumbent but not rooting, with branches strict, pseudo-dichotomous or lateral. Stems orange-brown, 4-lined and ancipitous when young, eventually terete, cortex exfoliating in irregular flakes; internodes 1-2 mm long. Leaves sessile or rarely subsessile, erect to narrowly spreading, ± imbricate-tetrastichous, deciduous above the base after fading; lamina 7-13 x 1.5-4 mm, narrowly elliptic to linear-oblong, plane or slightly incurved, scarcely to markedly cucullate, midrib impressed beneath, margin not or very narrowly hyaline, concolorous, rather glaucous, ± coriaceous; apex acute, base angustate, not sheathing, pairs united to form rather shallow interfoliar ridge; basal vein 1, (always?) unbranched; laminar glands dense, visible above and rarely also beneath; marginal glands rather dense. Inflorescence 1-flowered, with pseudo-dichotomous branches from node below; pedicel 3-4 mm long; upper leaves not transitional. Flowers c. 20-25 mm in diam., stellate. Sepals 7.5-9 x 1.8-2.3 mm, oblong-oblanceolate, acute, not or slightly incurved-cucullate; veins 5, branched, not or scarcely prominent beneath; glands striiform to punctiform. Petals5 (bright?) yellow, 12-16 x 4-10 mm, c. 1.5-1.8 x sepals, oblong-oblanceolate; apiculus acute; glands linear to striiform. Stamens c. 80-90, longest 6-10 mm long, 0.5-0.7 x petals. Ovary c. 3 x 2.5 mm, broadly ovoid; styles 3, 3.6-4.3 mm long, 1.2-1.4 x ovary, divergent; stigmas not or narrowly capitate. Capsule c. 5.5 x 3.5 mm, ovoid-pyramidal, shorter than sepals.
