Description

The flower bud of Rothmannia capensis has an incongruous missile shape, tempered by its soft pale yellow, sometimes yellow-green colour. The corolla is furled in a cone-shaped tip, ridged lower down, above the fleshy calyx with its five, narrow thread-like sepal tips.

Flowers of R. capensis grow solitary from leaf axils (Coates Palgrave, 2002).
