Umbels pedunculate, 2–4.5 × 2–3.5 cm, 15–20-flowered; pedicels 7–12 mm, glabrous; bracts linear, 2–3 mm, pubescent. Flowers 5–7 mm in diam. Hypanthium campanulate, glabrous abaxially. Sepals ovate-triangular or triangular, 1.5–2 mm, erect in fruit, apex acute. Petals white, ovate, broadly obovate, or suborbicular, 2–3.5 × 2–3 mm, apex obtuse or emarginate. Stamens 25–30, nearly equaling petals. Disk annular, 10-lobed; lobes slightly emarginate at apex. Carpels glabrous, or pubescent near base and on adaxial suture; styles shorter than stamens.
