Convolvulus remotus R.Br. is a perennial twining plant with terete, hairy, flattened stems. Its leaves are oval or oblong, measuring 1–8 cm (0.39–3.15 in) in length and 5–40 mm (0.20–1.57 in) in width, with either pointed or rounded apexes, and attached by a 2–20 mm (0.079–0.787 in) long petiole.
Flowers appear either singly or in clusters of 2 to 3 in leaf axils. They are funnel-shaped, pink, 8–13 mm (0.31–0.51 in) long, and 8–20 mm (0.31–0.79 in) in diameter. They grow on a slender peduncle 5–42 mm (0.20–1.65 in) long that bears appressed hairs. Flowering can occur at any time of year. The fruit is a smooth, globe-shaped capsule 5.5–8.5 mm (0.22–0.33 in) long and 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) in diameter.
This bindweed grows on a range of soil types including clay and sand, in habitats such as scrubland, woodlands, floodplains and gullies. It is distributed across New South Wales, Western Australia, South Australia, Queensland, Victoria and the Northern Territory.
