The plants are about 1m high, standing erect.
The flowers are about 1cm, blooming in clusters, arising from axils as well as
the apex. The rust coloured centre, larger than the rays seems to be without
any florets. And as the flower loses its glory, the ray florets also assume
the same rusty brown centre colour.
The leaves are small 1 in - 1½ in, toothed.
The stem is hairy, green; and those holding the flower clusters are rusty
brown very similar to the centre-head.
