Geum triflorum is a perennial that grows in clumps, reaching heights of up to 45 cm. Its foliage consists of grey-green, hairy leaves that are segmented into leaflets. From early summer, each slender stem produces up to three flowers; these nodding blooms, which range from cream to purple, arise from buds that are flushed with reddish-purple. After flowering, the plant develops feathery seedheads.

The fruit develops in rounded clusters, with a distinctive covering of red barbs.
