The leaves are on a base 0.6–4 cm (0.24–1.6 in) long then spread or turn upward and divide into 1–14 final segments 0.1–3.6 cm (0.039–1.4 in) long and 0.7–1.8 mm (0.028–0.071 in) wide . The inflorescence consists of 35-100 cream-white flowers on a stalk with white soft hairs that is 20–75 mm (0.79–3.0 in) long. The pedicel is 3–9 mm (0.12–0.35 in) long with soft white hairs. The perianth has a slight bend, white soft hairs and 2–5 mm (0.079–0.20 in) long. The straight style is 8.5–11 mm (0.33–0.43 in) long. It produces white flowers from September to December. The red brown woody fruit are 2 to 3.4 centimetres (0.79 to 1.34 in) long and 7 to 11 millimetres (0.276 to 0.433 in) wide. The fruit are in clusters, occasionally with soft hairs or smooth, ending with a long beak and inconspicuous horns. The fruit seeds occupy much of the valve and are 19 to 26 mm (0.75 to 1.02 in) in length and 6 to 10 mm (0.236 to 0.394 in) wide with a wing that goes partially down one side. [2] [4] [5]
