Phenotype

intermediate allele; homeotic conversion of sepals (first whorl) to leaf-like - being triangular in shape, flanked by stipules and having stellate trichomes; some secondary flowers are formed in the axils of the transformed sepals; petals and petaloid stamens predominate in the second whorl; phenotype varies acropetally, with more complete flower-to-inflorescence conversions in basal flowers and at low temperature.
