Cursed crowfoot flowers occur on the ends of the upper stems. Individual flowers are 6-8 mm across with five yellowish-green sepals about the same length as the petals, five (sometimes three or four) yellow, rounded petals, a ring of 5-10+ short stamens with yellow anthers, and a central hemispherical to gumdrop-shaped mass of green pistils. After fertilization, the central mass of pistils enlarges and elongates, producing a cylindrical mass of flat, smooth, kidney-shaped 1 mm long seeds with short, straight beaks.
