Bobartia fasciculata flowers

The star-like yellow flowers of Bobartia fasciculata grow on short, hairy pedicels. A flower lasts for less than a day (fugacious). The flowers are unscented and bear no nectar.

The oblong, round-tipped tepals grow in two whorls of three, the inner ones slightly smaller. The three anthers are erect initially, twisting when dry. The style is short but ends in three, long, diverging, thread-like branches, taller than the stamens.

The fruit is a woody capsule (Leistner, (Ed.), 2000; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
