Mediterranean mustard is an erect, canescent, biennial or perennial growing to some 3’ tall. The stems are branched both from the base and above, and are covered with fine gray-white hairs. The leaves are alternate with the basal ones being from 1-1/4" to 4" long in a rosette, lyrate-pinnatifid with a large terminal lobe and several pairs of somewhat separated smaller leaflets or lobes, and the upper cauline leaves reduced, sessile, dentate to lobed, and not clasping the stem.
