Scortechini’s Perak fruiting specimen. The racemes are slender, 
axillary with several sub-terminal 3 to 5 in. long. Flowers distant, 
•2 in. across, pedicels slender, spreading, i in. long. Bracts lan¬ 
ceolate acuminate minute. Sepals 5, lanceolate reflexed. Petals 5, 
lanceolate reflexed. Stamens 5 ; anthers lanceolate sagittate long, 
connective dilate at tip. Ovary ovoid, flattened, base narrowed; 
style cylindric; stigma trilobed.
