The plant bears attractive neatly-rounded heads of small, bright golden flowers. The individual flowers have no petals; rather, they are composed of yellow [[bract]]s forming a trumpet-shaped [[sepal|calyx]] about the [[stamen]]s. It bears a small, winged fruit. The plant grows in succulent mats on sand or other coastal substrate. The roots of the plant are edible.
