The current circumscription of this species comprises a range of corolla colors, from purple to yellow to white. In Florida, it was noted to have a pale yellow corolla (Brass 15873, FSU), which suggests that Florida material could be called U. trinervia (Guedes et al. 2021). The bracteoles of this species are fused to the bract near the base and the capsule dehisces by dorsi-ventral slits (Costa et al. 2016).
