About Dodonaea hexandra F.Muell.
Dodonaea hexandra is a spreading, dioecious shrub that usually grows up to 60 cm (24 in) tall. Its leaves are simple, sessile, and most measure 4–14 mm (0.16–0.55 in) long and 0.5–2 mm (0.020–0.079 in) wide. Flowers grow singly in leaf axils or at branch ends, on a stalk 1–2 mm (0.039–0.079 in) long. This species has three egg-shaped sepals that are 1.5–3.6 mm (0.059–0.142 in) long, six stamens that are roughly the same length as the sepals, and a glabrous ovary. Flowering takes place from May to July. The fruit is a glabrous, three-angled capsule 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) long and 5–8 mm (0.20–0.31 in) wide. Appendages on the fruit are often absent; if present, they are lobe-shaped, crust-like, and 0.5 mm (0.020 in) wide. This species of Dodonaea grows in tree-dominated mallee scrub, found in southern South Australia, the far south of Western Australia, and far north-western Victoria.
