Guichenotia angustifolia

Guichenotia angustifolia is an erect, prostrate or climbing shrub that typically grows to 0.15–1.5 m (5.9 in – 4 ft 11.1 in) high and 1.5–2 m (4 ft 11 in – 6 ft 7 in) wide, its young branches densely covered with star-shaped hairs. The leaves are oblong to linear, 8–40 mm (0.31–1.57 in) long and 1–4 mm (0.039–0.157 in) wide on a petiole 1–3 mm (0.039–0.118 in) long with lance-shaped stipules 1–12 mm (0.039–0.472 in) long at the base. Both surfaces of the leaves are covered with star-shaped hairs. The flowers are borne singly, in pairs or in cymes on a peduncle 10–40 mm (0.39–1.57 in) long, each flower or pair on a pedicel 6–12 mm (0.24–0.47 in) long, with bracts 2–7 mm (0.079–0.276 in) long and egg-shaped bracteoles 2–4 mm (0.079–0.157 in) long at the base. There are five, petal-like sepal lobes and five small red petals. Flowering occurs from July to November and the fruit is a papery capsule 7 mm (0.28 in) in diameter.

Guichenotia angustifolia usually grows in shrubland from near Perth to near Brookton and Northampton in the Avon Wheatbelt, Geraldton Sandplains and Jarrah Forest bioregions of south-western Western Australia.
