The flowers are arranged in racemes up to 125 mm (4.9 in) long on a peduncle 3–7 mm (0.12–0.28 in) long with leaf-like bracts, each flower on a pedicel 1–2 mm (0.039–0.079 in) long. The sepals are narrow egg-shaped to lance-shaped, 5.2–6 mm (0.20–0.24 in) long and the corolla is blue or purple, 10–17 mm (0.39–0.67 in) long.
