About Leucopogon glabellus R.Br.
Leucopogon glabellus R.Br. is an erect or straggly shrub, usually reaching 0.1 to 1 meter (3.9 inches to 3 feet 3.4 inches) in height, and has slender branchlets. Its leaves range from heart-shaped to lance-shaped, and are typically 2 to 4 millimeters (0.079 to 0.157 inches) long; narrower leaves may sometimes grow up to 6 millimeters (0.24 inches) long. Flowers are arranged in cylindrical, many-flowered spikes at the ends of branches, accompanied by small, leaf-like bracts and bracteoles that are less than half the length of the sepals. Sepals are less than 2 millimeters (0.079 inches) long. The petals are white, around 3 millimeters (0.12 inches) long, and form a tube where the lobes are longer than the petal tube itself. This species of leucopogon grows in winter-wet sites, on granite outcrops, and on hills. It is widespread across the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest, Mallee, Swan Coastal Plain and Warren bioregions of south-western Western Australia.
