A shrub or small, slender tree up to 7 m, sometimes semi-climbing, often forming tangled thickets. Bark: grey and smoothish, becoming dark brown and rough with age. Leaves: with 3-5 pairs of opposite leaflets; leaflets elliptic to almost round, 1.5-2.5 x 1-2 cm; apex broadly tapering and abruptly narrowly pointed to rounded and notched; base tapering to rounded, almost symmetric; margin entire; petiolules absent; petiole 1-6 mm long. Flowers: a dense, congested, almost spherical, branched head or panicle, 3-8 cm in diameter; on short spur-branchlets or, occasionally, terminal; the conspicuous stamens, joined at the base to form a distinct sheath, give the flowers a `bottle-brush' appearance; petals well developed and, like the sepals, blood red. Fruit: a flattened pod, up to 12 x 4 cm, with the characteristic persistent rim. Seeds: oval, 1.5-2 cm in diameter, pale brown, with a large yellow aril.

Many-stemmed shrub or slender tree up to 7 m high, often sub-scandent or scandent, sometimes forming a large spreading bush. Bark pale grey and smooth when young, but rough and dark brown when old; young branchlets glabrous to ± densely pubescent. Leaves glabrous to ± densely pubescent: petiole 1-6 mm long; rhachis 3-8 cm long, narrowly winged especially apically; leaflets 3-5(6) pairs, opposite or subopposite, sessile, elliptic, sub-rotund or obovate, (1)1.5-3.5 cm long, (0.6)1-1.8(2) cm wide, obtuse or acute basally, often oblique, obtuse or acute and usually mucronate apically. Stipules obliquely ovate, up to 6 mm long and 3 mm wide, deciduous. Inflorescence a congested subglobose panicle, borne on short lateral branchlets or sometimes terminal; inflorescence branches much abbreviated, semi-woody, glabrous or pubescent. Flowers scarlet, sessile or on pedicels up to 1.5 mm long; bracts scale-like, less than 1 mm long, deciduous. Calyx leathery, tube obconical, 3-6 mm long, persistent; lobes 4, subequal, obovate to elliptic, 6-9 mm long, 3-4 mm wide. Petals 5, oblanceolate, clawed, 10-14 mm long, 3-4 mm wide, veined. Stamens 10, united basally for 2-4.5 mm and forming a sheath around the stipe of the ovary, sheath split open on the side to which the stipe of the ovary is attached to the calyx receptacle, projecting as a narrow irregular rim ±1 mm above the junction of the stamen-filaments; one or two filaments often free to the base on the split side; filaments linear, 12-16 mm long, exceeding the corolla by 3-5 mm; anthers elliptic, 1.5-2 mm long. Ovary oblong, 4-5 mm long, ±2 mm wide, compressed, on a stipe 4-5 mm long and ±1 mm thick, adnate to one side of the calyx receptacle; style 13-15 mm long. Pod as in generic description, 4-16 cm long, 2.5-3.9 cm wide. Seeds pale brown, ovoid, 8-12 mm long, 8-12 mm wide, 5-6 mm thick, with a large compressed yellow basal aril. From: Ross, JH. 1977.

S. capitata shows a superficial resemblance to some of the specimens referred to 'S. latifolia x S. afra, Form B', but is distinguished from this group by the characteristic staminal sheath which encloses the stipe of the ovary. The sheath is usually composed of 8 stamens united basally for 2-4.5 mm with a slit on the side to which the stipe is attached to the calyx receptacle. The sheath is smooth on the inside and is projected as an uneven rim ±1 mm above the junction of the stamen filaments. One or two stamens are usually free to the base on the open side of the sheath.
