Harveya pumila flower

The flowers of Harveya pumila grow in dense spike-shaped clusters. There are small, linear, erect bracts or bracteoles at the base of the stalkless or nearly stalkless flowers, below the calyces. The five-lobed calyx is about 2,5 cm long. 

The flower has a funnel-shaped corolla, about 4 cm long. It opens into five spreading lobes that are slightly two-lipped. The lobe margin curves gracefully in an elaborately rounded to obovate shape with a flat, serrated tip. Two parallel yellow markings are present in the throat of the flower on the lowermost corolla lobe. Fine silvery hairs are visible in parts of the corolla lobes.

The stamens are shorter than the white, down-curved style with its kidney-shaped stigma, prominently displayed in the flower mouth (JSTOR).
