The flowers are arranged in groups of up to twelve on a rachis up to 70 mm (2.8 in) long that continues to grow after flowering, each flower on a pedicel 2–3.5 mm (0.079–0.138 in) long with a leaf at its base. The tepals are yellow, 9–10 mm (0.35–0.39 in) long and glabrous. Flowering ocurs from December to January. [2] [3] [4]
