Monoecious, solitary, and subtly attractive in spring, they are similar to those of Larix decidua.
The male pollen-bearing flowers are oval, yellow-brown, and 1/4 - 1/3" long.
The female flowers are larger, 1/2 - 3/4" long, ovoid cones that are reddish purple with a green stripe in the center of each scale, and are borne in the axils of larger, older branches.
