This spectroscopic binary can be classified as single lined[3] because only the primary's spectrum can be observed clearly, with it having a stellar classification of F6 V.[3] This makes it an ordinary F-type main-sequence star. The companion is probably a G-type main-sequence star of G0,[7] having a mass 101% that of the Sun.[13] The pair have a relatively circular orbit of about 9 days.[13]

19 LMi has 129% the mass of the Sun[9] and an effective temperature of 6,483 K, giving a yellow white hue. The object is somewhat evolved at an age of 2.5 billion years,[1] having a slightly enlarged radius of 2 R☉[9] and a luminosity of 6.4 L☉,[1] high for its class. 19 LMi has an iron abundance 123% that of the Sun,[11] making it slighly metal enriched. It spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 5 km/s.[12]
