About Boronia albiflora R.Br. ex Benth.

Boronia albiflora is a soft, erect shrub that grows to a height of 0.1–0.7 m (0.3–2 ft), with short, spreading hairs covering its stems and branches. Its leaves are pinnate, bearing between seven and eleven leaflets. The leaflets are more or less wedge-shaped, leathery, and often have rolled-under edges. The flowers are pink, or a mix of pink and white, and are produced in leaf axils. The four sepals are lance-shaped to egg-shaped and covered with hairs. The four petals are glabrous, 9–11 mm long, and overlap at their bases. The filaments are club-shaped and have a glandular tip. Flowering occurs in most months of the year. This boronia grows in near-coastal areas of the southern part of south-west Western Australia, most often in sandy soils.
