Although the flowers emit an ester/vinegar scent of rotting fruit during the middle of the day, suggesting small flies, nitidulid beetles, or thrips as possible flower visitors, no pollinators were found. Color cues may be important in determining the timing of pollinator behavior, as the flower buds are initially white, then become pink or pinkish orange, and finally turn pinkish red. The tips of the petals often become black or dark gray. A band of corrugated tissue crosses the adaxial surface of the inner petal at its widest extent and may provide a food reward for pollinators. As in

, onset of anthesis is signalled by the bending of the apices of the inner petals so that they emerge through the gaps between the erect outer petals.
