About Hibbertia monogyna R.Br. ex DC.

Hibbertia monogyna is an erect shrub that typically grows up to 60 cm (24 in) tall, and is more or less glabrous. Its leaves are linear to wedge-shaped or spatula-shaped, 5โ€“12 mm (0.20โ€“0.47 in) long, 2.5โ€“5 mm (0.098โ€“0.197 in) wide, and sessile. The leaf edges curve downwards, and teeth are sometimes present near the leaf tip. Flowers form at the ends of short side shoots, are sessile, and have a linear to lance-shaped bract around 1.5 mm (0.059 in) long at their base. The sepals are 4โ€“6 mm (0.16โ€“0.24 in) long, with lobes of unequal length. The petals are yellow, egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, and 4โ€“6 mm (0.16โ€“0.24 in) long. Ten to twelve stamens are arranged around the single glabrous carpel. Flowering takes place in September and October. This hibbertia grows in forest on hillsides, ranging south from the Goonoo Important Bird Area near Dubbo to the far north-east corner of Victoria.
