Boronia albiflora is a plant in the citrus family, Rutaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is a soft shrub with pinnate leaves and pink or pink and white, four-petalled flowers.

Description

Boronia albiflora is a soft, erect shrub that grows to a height of {{convert|0.1-0.7|m|ft|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} with its stems and branches covered with short, spreading hairs. Its leaves are pinnate with between seven and eleven leaflets, the leaflets more or less wedge-shaped and leathery with the edges often turned under. The flowers are pink or pink and white and are borne in leaf axils. The four sepals are lance-shaped to egg-shaped and covered with hairs. The four petals are glabrous, {{convert|9-11|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and overlap at their bases. The filaments are club-shaped and have a glandular tip. Flowering occurs in most months.[1][2]

Taxonomy and naming

Boronia albiflora was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham from an unpublished description by Robert Brown and the description was published in Flora Australiensis.[3][2] The specific epithet (albiflora) is derived from the Latin words albus meaning "white"[4]{{rp|856}} and florus meaning "flowered".[4]{{rp|45}}

Distribution and habitat

This boronia grows in near coastal areas in southern parts of the south-west of Western Australia, often growing in sandy soils.[1]

Conservation

Boronia albiflora is classified as "not threatened" in Western Australia by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[1]
