Peduncle 7-12 cm in height, c. 0.6-0.8 mm in diameter. Basal leaves two, longer than the inflorescence, bending, hair-l ike, c. 0.3 mm in diameter. Peduncle leaves alternate, lower narrowly lanceolate-linear c. 3 mm broad, gradually pointed, almost equal to the inflorescence. Inflorescence paniculate, lax, 2-4(6)-flowered, on thin, bending pedicels. Tepals narrowly-lanceolate, tip rounded, 7-9 mm long, 1-2 mm broad, yellow inside, pale-green outside, inner tepals a little longer. Anthers yellow, dehiscence roundish, 0.5 mm in diameter.
