Branches stout, more or less decumbent, ringed with lf .-scars: lvs. imbricating to erect-patent, sessile, narrow-oblong to almost orbicular, 1/4 – 1/2 in. long, glabrous, usually thick, glaucous, generally margined red: spikes crowded near tips of branches, short, stout, dense-fld.: fls. white, ovary pubescent.
