Each flower is borne on a rather long and stout pedicel. Campanulate
five-parted white calyx is prominent in those flowers that
are not yet open. Corolla consists of five snow-white petals with
claws. Long, slender stamens add grace to the exquisite flowers. You can also
see sparse hairs on the leaves in the background.
