About Leucopogon glacialis Lindl.
Leucopogon glacialis Lindl. is a slender, spreading to erect shrub that typically reaches a height of 15 to 60 cm (5.9 to 23.6 in). It has brownish, softly hairy branchlets. Its leaves are more or less erect, narrowly egg-shaped to lance-shaped, 3โ12 mm (0.12โ0.47 in) long, 0.6โ1.3 mm (0.024โ0.051 in) wide, and usually spirally twisted. Flowers are arranged in crowded spikes holding six to twelve flowers, with spikes 4โ10 mm (0.16โ0.39 in) long. These spikes grow at the ends of branches and in upper leaf axils, accompanied by egg-shaped bracteoles 0.8โ1.2 mm (0.031โ0.047 in) long. The sepals are oblong to egg-shaped and 1.3โ2.5 mm (0.051โ0.098 in) long. The petals are white, 1.5โ3 mm (0.059โ0.118 in) long, and form a tube, with petal lobes slightly longer than the tube itself. Flowering occurs from April to September, and the fruit is an oval drupe about 2 mm (0.079 in) long. This leucopogon grows in heath and heathy woodland. It is found mostly in the south-west of Victoria and the far south-east of South Australia.
