Heliophila amplexicaulis flowers

The flowers of Heliophila amplexicaulis grow on long, slender pedicels in panicles of branched racemes, mainly clustered towards the stem-tips. Flower colour is often white, although pink and mauve flowering plants occur. The four petals spread up to 1 cm in diameter.

Six stamens angle up and out, encircling the erect style on top of the superior ovary.

Flowering happens from late winter to after midspring.

The fruit is a siliqua, a long, thin, often beaded fruit-shape found in the Brassicaceae family. These siliquae spread from the stems, are tipped by the swollen styles and dehisce when ripe (Le Roux, et al, 2005; Manning and Goldblatt, 1997; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
