    Glumicalyx lesuticus can become a much-branched, robust plant with much flowering on the erect stem-tips. Like tricolor flags the inflorescences have green bases in the sepals, white centre pars in the corolla tubes and yellow to brownish orange tip parts, usually presented lowest. Such a flag would be new at the United Nations.
