The flower petals are 5–9 mm (0.20–0.35 in) long, white, pale lilac or pale blue in racemes of 40-100 flowers. The seed capsule is narrow or broadly egg-shaped, 2.8–5.5 mm (0.11–0.22 in) long, 2.5–4.5 mm (0.098–0.177 in) wide and either smooth or with short hairs on the upper side and somewhat lustrous.

Houstonia caerulea is a perennial herb [2] that produces showy flowers approximately 1 cm (0.39 in) across. These flowers are four-parted with pale blue petals and a yellow center. The foliage is a basal rosette with spatula-shaped leaves. [2] Stems are up to 20 cm (7.9 in) tall with one flower per stalk.
The flowers appear in the spring and form a spike or raceme, being held in a close or loose spiral around a central stalk. The flowers often become less tightly spaced as the flower matures. The flower colour varies from pale blue to a very dark blue, almost black in some cases (albino forms are also known).
