A low, rather stout species, with ample cauline leaves, much less 

 matted than A. pulvinata^ but resembling it in its heads and in the 

 general outline of its leaves. The indiiment is loose and dull white or 

 grayish in color, not appressed and shining, as in that species. It is 

 distinguished from A. )nedla by its larger heads and obtuse leaves,

 more like those of A. aprica. The heads are on longer pedicels than 

 is usually the case in the species of this group.
