The stems may root at nodes that come in contact with moist substrate. The leaves are alternately arranged on the stems but are mostly located bunched around the tips of the stem branches. The leaves are linear to lance-shaped with rolled edges and bristly midribs on the undersides. Each leaf has a large stipule which forms a wide, membranous ochrea. The ochrea is up to 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) long and is persistent, fraying into fibrous, silvery shreds that remain on the plant through the seasons. Flowers occur in the leaf axils. Each is up to a centimeter (0.4 inches) wide with five narrow white or pinkish corolla lobes.[4]References1. ^Biota of North America Program 2014 county distribution map 2. ^Calflora taxon report, University of California, Polygonum paronychia Cham. & Schldl., Dune Knotweed, beach knotweed 3. ^Turner Photographics, Polygonum paronychia - Wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest photos, description, partial distribution map 4. ^1 Flora of North America, Polygonum paronychia Chamisso & Schlechtendal, 1828.
