The flowers are arranged in leaf axils in groups of two to four on a peduncle up to Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with spatula-shaped bracts about Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base the upper two lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three triangular and about Шаблон:Cvt long. The standard petal is broadly elliptic, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide, orange grading to dark red near the base and fading to yellow. The wings are Шаблон:Cvt long and red with a dark grey base, the keel Шаблон:Cvt long and dark red.
