Stem ...erect, including the panicle a foot and a half or two feet high, terete, branching from the base, and there rather woody, purplish-brown and scarred from the fallen leaves, the rest glaucous, and bearing distant pairs of opposite very glaucous leaves, few in number, spathulate, that is oblong or obovate, entire, tapering into a stalk, all except the uppermost pair at the base of the panicle, which are ovate, oblong, quite sessile, truncated or even cordate at the base.
