About Boronia fastigiata Bartl.
Boronia fastigiata Bartl. is an erect shrub that grows to 1 metre (3 feet) tall. Its leaves are broadly elliptic or egg-shaped, 10 to 20 millimetres (0.39 to 0.79 inches) long, and sometimes have serrated edges. The flowers may be red, pink, or purple, and are arranged singly or in small groups in the upper leaf axils. This species has four egg-shaped sepals and four petals that are about 7.5 millimetres (0.3 inches) long, twice the length of the sepals. Its eight stamens are covered in hairs. Flowering occurs most often from September to December. It grows on flats and hillsides, often near streams, and is found between Perth, Albany, and Collie in the Jarrah Forest, Swan Coastal Plain, and Warren biogeographic regions of Western Australia.
