[1] The simple inflorescences occur in pairs in the axils and have spherical flower-heads that have a diameter of 3 to 3.5 mm (0.12 to 0.14 in) and contain 14 to 25 golden coloured flowers. Following flowering linear shaped seed pods form that have a length of 1.2 to 2.2 cm (0.47 to 0.87 in) in length and 2 mm (0.079 in) wide and contain brown-black oblong-elliptic shaped seeds that are 2.5 to 3 mm (0.098 to 0.118 in) in length.
