In older plants, the hairs become sparse on the top surface but the under surface is always covered in woolly tomentum. Its flowers are yellow and appear throughout the year on stalks that are up to 35cm high. | It is a variable species and can have hairy leaves that vary in shape and size depending on the area.

Brachyglottis lagopus is a small flowering rosette herbaceous perennial native to New Zealand. It is found in the North Island from Taupo south and to Canterbury in the South Island, from coastal to low alpine, in open scrub, snow tussock, herbfields, rock crevices and grasslands. It prefers damp shady areas but will often succeed when self-sown into rock crevices.
