Description
Darwinia purpurea is a spreading shrub that typically grows to height of Шаблон:Cvt and has many branches. Its leaves are linear, Шаблон:Cvt long, the upper surface flat and the lower surface convex. The flowers are arranged in dense, hemispherical heads surrounded by a large number of overlapping egg-shaped or spatula-shaped involucral bracts that are slightly longer than the flowers. The sepal tube is about Шаблон:Cvt long with small, scale-like lobes, the petals about Шаблон:Cvt long. Flowering occurs from July to December.[1][2]
Taxonomy
This species was first formally described in 1838 by Stephan Endlicher who gave it the name Polyzone purpurea in Stirpium Australasicarum Herbarii Hugeliani Decades Tres.[3][4] In 1865, George Bentham changed the name to Darwinia purpurea in Journal of the Linnean Society, Botany.[5] The specific epithet (purpurea) means "purple".[6]
Distribution and habitat
Rose darwinia is often found on undulating plains and amongst granite outcrops in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie, Geraldton Sandplains and Yalgoo of south-western Western Australia, where it grows in sandy or lateritic soils.[1]
