This shrublet grows up to 1.2 m (3.9 ft) tall. It has few branches.[2] Each of the pinnatisect (split into sections nearly to the midrib, not quite forming leaflets) leaves has 3-5 lobes.[3] Solitary disc shaped flower heads are crowded in terminal compound inflorescences at the ends of branches.[2] They are yellow in colour and are present between October and December.[3]
This plant is endemic to South Africa.[4] It grows in the Western Cape, where it is found on damp clay soils between Hermanus and Gouritsmond.[2]
This species is common and is considered to be of least concern by the South African National Biodiversity Institute.[4]
