    The flowers of Selago corymbosa are small and white, short spikes clustered in many-flowered terminal corymb-shaped panicles that are shallowly domed and up to 6 cm in diameter. The calyces are five-toothed. There is a tiny corolla tube of up to 2 mm at the base of each flower. The petal lobes are unequal, one longer than the other four, as long as or shorter than the tube.

    The flowering time is summer to early winter. The ovoid fruit is about 1 mm long (Euston-Brown and Kruger, 2023; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; Gledhill, 1981; http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au).
