Following flowering thin walled seed pods that resemble a string of beads and are curved or coiled with a length of Шаблон:Cvt and a width of Шаблон:Cvt. The pods contain narrowly elliptic seeds with a length of Шаблон:Cvt.[2]

Distribution

The shrub has a disjunct distribution and is found in the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales and southern parts of the Australian Capital Territory with a range that continues further south to around Mount Baw Baw in the eastern Victorian highlands. It is found in hilltops and ranges and plateaus with an altitude of Шаблон:Cvt. It is often situated in granitic and windswept areas and sometimes forms dense thickets.
