Flower: The small yellow cyathiform flowers have 4-petals with as many stamens and appear in axillary panicle with a short pedicle on the previous year's growth. Male and female plants must be grown together in order to produce fruit. The flowers appear during spring and are regarded as insignificant as an ornamental feature.
