They state that the species flowers in Spitzbergen from the first half of July till August and September, but whether fruits are set was not determined ('Bidrag till Kanned. om Spetsbergens o. Beeren Eil. Karlvaxtflora,' p. 28). Ekstam, for Spitzbergen, describes the flowers as being usually protandrous, though cases of homogamy were also noticed ('Bliitenbiol. Beob. a. Spitzbergen,' p. 15). Ekstam says that the odourless flowers are 10-12 mm. in diameter in Nova Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Knuth, Paul, 1854-1899; Knuth, Paul, 1854-1899; Mu?ller, Hermann, 1829-1883; Ainsworth Davis, J.
