About Pultenaea reticulata Benth.

Pultenaea reticulata Benth. is an erect shrub that usually grows between 0.5 and 2 meters (1 foot 8 inches to 6 feet 7 inches) tall, and it has hairy stems. Its leaves are arranged alternately along the branches, are flat and elliptic, and measure 8โ€“25 mm (0.31โ€“0.98 inches) long and 3โ€“9 mm (0.12โ€“0.35 inches) wide. Each leaf has stipules at its base and a sharp point at its tip. The flowers of this species are yellow-orange and reddish-brown, are sessile, and have bracteoles attached to the pedicel. The sepals are 7.5โ€“9 mm (0.30โ€“0.35 inches) long, the standard petal is 11.5โ€“13.5 mm (0.45โ€“0.53 inches) long, the wings are 10โ€“11.5 mm (0.39โ€“0.45 inches) long, and the keel is 10.0โ€“10.5 mm (0.39โ€“0.41 inches) long. Flowering takes place from August to December, and the fruit is a flattened pod. This pultenaea is most often found in winter-wet locations within the Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest, Swan Coastal Plain, and Warren biogeographic regions of south-western Western Australia.
