Flowers with pedicels (1.8-)2.3-4.4(-6.1) mm long; calyx teeth 1 (0.3-)0.4-0.6(-0.7) mm long; petals very widely ovate, (0.9-)1.0-1.2(-1.3) x 1.0-1.1(-1.2) mm, inflexed part 0.6-0.8(-0.9) mm long; resin ducts branched; filaments (1.0-)1.1-1.5(-1.9) mm long, the uppermost 0.1-0.2 1 mm inflexed in bud; anthers 0.7(-0.8) mm long; ovary (1.0-)1.1-1.3(-1.4) mm long; stylopodium (1.1-)1.2-1.5(-1.6) mm wide, (0.5-)0.6-0.8(-0.9) mm high; style 0.2(-0.3) mm long.
