This species produces white flowers that bloom from late April to early May. The flowers have rounded petals, 12 to 25 stamens, and are arranged in racemes of approximately six to ten flowers each. Individual flowers reach 4 cm (1.6 in) in diameter. After flowering, the plant develops brown, dehiscent seed capsules.
