The flowers are arranged in leaf axils in groups of two to four, the groups on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the rachis up to Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with narrow oblong bracts about Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base with ten ribs and small teeth on the end. The standard petal is elliptic with a notched centre, about Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide, and yellow and dark red. The wings are about Шаблон:Cvt long and the keel about Шаблон:Cvt long.
