Leaves all from the root, pinnate; Leaflets 3-8 pairs, or some of the leaflets in whorls of 3-4, wedge-shaped, 3-fid. with a conspicuous triangular crimson mark at the base of each: infl. a panicle, bearing minute, linear bracts; flowers. drooping, having 6 showy, wedge-shaped, crenate parts. 3 of which should possibly be considered petals, and the other 3 inner sepals, since there are 3 small, greenish lobes outside which are like an ordinary calyx, and should, perhaps, be called the outer calyx.
