The leaves are Шаблон:Cvt long and divided, with linear lobes Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole up to Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are arranged on the ends of branchlets in sessile, more or less spherical heads Шаблон:Cvt in diameter, with egg-shaped involucral bracts at the base. The flowers are up to Шаблон:Cvt long, yellow and more or less glabrous.
