Inflorescences corymbiform, 6-15 × 8-12 cm; branches winged; bracts resembling distal stem leaves but smaller; pedicels longer than flowers, winged. Sepals triangular-lanceolate, 2-2.5 × 1-1.5 mm, apex acute or acuminate. Petals yellow, spotted with purple, lanceolate, 3.5-4 × 1-1.5 mm, apex acuminate. Stamens 2.5-3 mm; filaments white, spotted with purple; anthers oblong-cordate, ca. 0.8 mm. Nectar scales broadly quadrate, 0.3-0.5 × 0.5-0.7 mm. Carpels erect, narrowly ovoid, 2.5-3 mm. Styles slender, 0.5-1 mm. Follicles many seeded. Seeds brown, ovoid-cylindric, longitudinally 10-12-striate. Fl. Aug, fr. Nov.
