It is an annual/perennial plant, growing at a medium rate. The plant grows up to 8-12 inches tall. Each plant has several composite flowers that look typically daisy-like, having a yellow central disk surrounded by white, petallike rays. Composite flowers are positioned singularly atop the terminal shoot of downy stems. The leaves are also hairy, lanceolate, and coarsely toothed. Bloom time varies from summer to mid-autumn. The leaves when bruised have a somewhat soap-like smell. The sap that lies in the tissues is bitter, astringent and salty. Animals do not generally eat the plant.
