    Geissorhiza aspera flowers
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Judd Kirkel Welwitch

    A Geissorhiza aspera flower has three long, thin and flat anthers, bilobed and blue, here curving above the flower centre on fairly short filaments. The stamens are shorter than the style that ends in three short, whitish branches where the stigmas reside.

    The flower throats in picture are lemon yellow. A bit of soft green bract is visible behind one of the flowers. The outer tepals are slightly bigger than those of the inner whorl, all their inner surfaces concave (Manning, 2009; iNaturalist).
