Description

Daviesia campephylla is a spreading, often domed shrub that typically grows to Шаблон:Cvt high and Шаблон:Cvt wide with rough-textured branchlets and phyllodes. Its leaves are reduced to irregularly bent phyllodes often resembling looping caterpillars or s-shaped, mostly Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The flowers are arranged in groups of up to five in leaf axils on a peduncle up to Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with egg-shaped or oblong bracts about Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base, the upper lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three triangular and about Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are mainly yellow with faint red markings, the standard broadly egg-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The wings are spatula-shaped and Шаблон:Cvt long and the keel Шаблон:Cvt long. Flowering occurs in November and the fruit is a thin-walled pod Шаблон:Cvt long.[1][2]
