Sweet Joe-Pye weed's inflorescence is a domed or pyramidal panicle. The flowerheads are whitish-pink to pinkish-purple and strikingly variable in color between plants, 1/4-3/8" long, consisting of 4-7 disk florets, each with a whitish-pink to purplish-pink tubular corolla with five lobes at its apex, two long, thin white styles extending well outside the floret and five stamens fused to the corolla about halfway up its length; there are no ray florets. The flowerheads make a domed (rather than flat) cluster at the apex of the plant. The bracts (phyllaries) around the base of the flowerhead are pale pink.
