[2] It blooms between August and September producing yellow flowers. [1] Each inflorescence has two racemes with spherical flower heads that have a diameter of 4 to 5 mm (0.16 to 0.20 in) containing 18 to 21 golden flowers, The seed pods that form later are linear with a length of around 6 cm (2.4 in) and a width of 3.5 mm (0.14 in) which contain longitudinal seeds.
