    Othonna parviflora flowerheads

    Othonna parviflora flowerheads
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Thabo Maphisa

    The bright yellow flowerheads of Othonna parviflora are small, about 1 cm in diameter. Short ray florets, about eight of them here, sometimes more, spread around each dense, bulging disc. The disc florets are five-lobed, forming a dense cluster.

    The peduncles are long, sometimes branched low down to be shared by different flowerheads (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2010; Manning, 2007; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
