    Ledebouria socialis flowers nod from white to pinkish, fleshy pedicels attached to a sturdy brown to purple stem. The nodding is the same as in the bud stage.

    The tepals are arranged in two concentric whorls of three each, fused at the base and spreading before curving back at their pointed tips. On the plant in picture the tepals are pinkish at the base, grey green on the outside where would be the keels, and white laterally near the corolla bases (Leistner, (Ed.), 2000; iNaturalist; https://pza.sanbi.org).
