Chamaephytes; endemic. Vulnerable, reasons unknown ( Delucchi 2006).

Characteristics. Shrub with numerous ascendant branches, 20–50 cm tall. Leaves: glabrous or slightly pubescent, with linear shape, 3–5 veins and sheathed

base; 8–20 cm long and 1–3 mm wide. Inflorescences: cylindrical dense spikes, 1–5 cm long; peduncles longer than the leaves; flowers with free sepals. Fruit: a capsule with 2 seeds.
