The terminal peduncle is hairy, exceeding the petiole multiple times, followed by a glabrous spike several times beyond the filiform densiflora leaf; the bracts are pelta, elliptic crenulate above the pedicellate centre, the anthers are tiny, the ovary emerges ovate-oblong, and the summon tip is stigmatiferous, while the stigma is glabrous.[4]
