Description

Erect, decumbent or straggling perennial herb. Flowers white, pink or mauve. The white form is somewhat similar to C. adonense, but may be distinguished by its much smaller, narrower leaves, less compact habit and smaller flowers. Like C. adonense it is a partial root-parasite, particularly of grasses.
