About Hibbertia devitata Toelken
Hibbertia devitata is an erect to spreading shrub that typically grows up to 80 cm (31 in) tall. Its leaves are linear to lance-shaped, 3.5–7 mm (0.14–0.28 in) long and 1.0–1.3 mm (0.039–0.051 in) wide, borne on a petiole up to 0.7 mm (0.028 in) long. Flowers are usually sessile, arranged singly on the ends of branches or short side-shoots, and are accompanied by linear to lance-shaped bracts 2.2–3.4 mm (0.087–0.134 in) long. The five sepals are joined at the base, 6–6.7 mm (0.24–0.26 in) long, with the two outer sepal lobes slightly longer and narrower than the inner lobes. The five petals are yellow, egg-shaped with the narrower end oriented toward the base, and 6–9 mm (0.24–0.35 in) long. There are usually six to eight stamens fused at their bases, arranged in a single group on one side of the two hairy carpels. Each carpel holds four to six ovules. Flowering of this species occurs mainly from August to November. This hibbertia grows in dry scrub or open mallee woodland in central western Victoria and south-eastern South Australia.
