Club-leafed Synaphea is a small compact shrub that can grow to 50 cm high and 50–70 cm wide, with a few dark and smooth stems up to 10 cm long. The leaves are hairless, blue-green in colour, three lobed to irregularly lobed, 2.5–9 cm long, and 3–10 cm wide. The inflorescence spike is up to 24 cm long, extending well past the leaves, and has fairly crowded, small bright yellow flowers at the end of a long red, occasionally green, peduncle. Flowering has been observed from September to October, and fruiting in October (Stack et al. 2002; Western Australian Herbarium 2006).
