The whole is downy, and stems are thick, yellow-brown, erect, and grow to 10-25 cm in height, with some degenerated leaves in a scaly way. The upper portions of the branches bear racemose inflorescences with numerous light purple flowers. Corollas are lip-shaped, about 2cm long; calyxes are divided into two, and the lobes are cleft in two afresh. Bloom time: May-July.
