Description
Teucrium micranthum is an erect subshrub that typically grows to a height of 10–30 cm (3.9–11.8 in), with moderately to densely hairy branches that are square in cross-section. The leaves are aromatic and arranged in opposite pairs, egg-shaped to elliptic, 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) long and 3–7 mm (0.12–0.28 in) wide on a petiole up to 1 mm (0.039 in) long. The flowers are arranged in groups of between four and twenty, each flower in a leaf axil. The five sepals are about 2 mm (0.079 in) long, joined at the base for about half their length, and densely hairy on the outside. The petals are white, 2.5–3 mm (0.098–0.118 in) long and barely longer than the sepals.
