    The white Pavetta kotzei flowers grow in stem-tip clusters of up to 4 cm in diameter on peduncles of up to 3 cm long. The calyx lobes have rounded tips and tapering bases, about 2 mm long.

    The corollas of four narrowly elliptic, spreading petals are based on tubes up to 11 mm long, the lobe length up to 7 mm. The conspicuously exserted styles are about 2,5 cm long, thin but club-shaped with elongated heads ending in stigmas.

    Flowering happens from late spring to after midsummer. 

    The black, ripe fruits are about spherical, crowned with calyx remains and about 6 mm in diameter, grown in clusters (Coates Palgrave, 2002; Schmidt, et al, 2002; Van Wyk and Van Wyk, 1997; Pooley, 1993; iNaturalist).
