The flowers are produced in a horizontal inflorescence emerging from a stout spathe. The flowers are pollinated when a bird sits on the spathe, which opens under its weight. and deposits pollen onto the birds feet, to be carried to the next plant.
Early evening shadows and the position of the stamens of the bloom give this image a special feel of restfulness.
