The five sepals are joined at the base, Шаблон:Cvt long, the outer sepals narrower than the inner sepals. The five petals are yellow, egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base and Шаблон:Cvt long with a deep notch at the tip. There are usually eleven stamens, some in small groups, arranged around the three glabrous carpels that each contain a single ovule.[1][2]
