Hoary Bowlesia is characterized by its pale green, palmately lobed leaves which contribute to its low-growing, mat-forming habit. In the spring, it forms clumps or mats and can grow to a size of about 1-3 feet (30-90 cm) tall. The foliage has a soft and hairy texture, giving it a hoary appearance. The overall morphology of young hoary Bowlesia can lead to its confusion with the hairy buttercup due to the similarity in leaf structure.
