    Antimima paripetala fruit and bud

    The fruit capsule of Antimima paripetala seen here has six locules. The closing bodies are large. The valves expand, the action augmented by the expanding keels. The old capsules are still present when the new buds prepare to open (Smith, et al, 1998; iNaturalist).
