It is a small shrub with narrow, keeled leaves and flowers in groups of about eight, surrounded by yellowish-green to pinkish-red bracteoles. It occurs in small, isolated populations near the towns which contribute to its common names. It is the only "bell-flowered" Darwinia to not grow in the Stirling Range National Park. DescriptionDarwinia carnea is a shrub growing to {{convert|0.2-2.0|m|ft|sigfig=1}} high with leaves arranged in opposite pairs, each pair at right-angles to the pair above. The leaves are glabrous, roughly V-shaped in cross-section, linear to lance-shaped, mostly {{convert|6-10|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long and about {{convert|1|mm|in|sigfig=1}} wide.[1]The flowers are arranged near the ends of the branches in groups of 10 to 14, each group surrounded by broad, glabrous, egg-shaped yellowish-green to pinkish-red bracteoles up to {{convert|30|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long. Individual flowers within this bell-like inflorescence are tubular, have blunt-tipped, egg-shaped petals, {{convert|4|mm|in|sigfig=1}} long and {{convert|2|mm|in|sigfig=1}} wide. Flowering occurs between October and December and is followed by fruit which is a small, non-fleshy nut.[1] The form occurring near Mogumber is taller, growing up to {{convert|2.0|m|ft|sigfig=1}}, has larger flowers and differently coloured bracteoles than the one found near Narrogin.[1][2] TaxonomyThe first formal description of D. carnea was published by Charles Gardner in 1923 in Royal Society of Western Australia. He collected the type specimen between Mogumber and New Norcia.[3] The specific epithet (carnea) is a Latin word meaning "flesh"[4] referring to the colour of the floral bracts.[2] Distribution and habitatThe two forms of this darwinia are separated by {{convert|250|km|mi|sigfig=1}} and differ from each other in some respects. There is only one small population near Narrogin and three near Mogumber, all on private property. They occur on gravelly hilltops or lateritic breakaways in heathy woodland. Three translocated populations have been established in nature reserves.[1] ConservationDarwinia carnea is classified as "Threatened Flora (Declared Rare Flora — Extant)" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife[5] and a Recovery Plan has been prepared.[1] It has also been listed as "Endangered" (EN) under the Australian Government Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).[6]This darwinia may always have been rare. In the 1980s, a visiting botanist is alleged to have warned a property owner of the existence of the plant on his property, warned the farmer to look after the darwinia by fencing off a {{convert|150|acre|ha|sigfig=1}}, but would not tell him precisely where the plant was found. The farmer was not prepared to fence off such a large paddock from his sheep. On a subsequent visit to the property, botanists were unable to find any D. carnea.[7] Use in horticultureDarwinia carnea is reasonably well known in gardens but requires excellent drainage and needs some overhead protection. It can be grown from cuttings but more success has been achieved by grafting onto Darwinia citriodora rootstock.[2]References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|last1=Fairs|first1=Amanda|last2=Douglas|first2=Craig|last3=Strelein|first3=Marie|last4=Todd|first4=Benson|last5=Hayes|first5=Rebecca|title=Mogumber and Narrogin Bell (Darwinia carnea) recovery plan|url=http://www.environment.gov.au/system/files/resources/3fa5277b-554b-43b4-b1a8-c19f38035673/files/darwinia-carnea.pdf|publisher=Australian Government Department of Environment and Conservation|accessdate=12 September 2016}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q15396504}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Darwinia carnea|url=http://anpsa.org.au/d-car.html|publisher=Australian Native Plants Society, Australia|accessdate=12 September 2016}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Darwinia carnea|url= https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/495921|publisher=APNI|accessdate=12 September 2016}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Roland Wilbur|title=The Composition of Scientific Words|date=1956|publisher=Smithsonian Institution Press|location=Washington, D.C.|page = 336}} 5. ^{{FloraBase|name=Darwinia carnea|id=5507}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=SPRAT Profile Darwinia carnea — Mogumber Bell, Narrogin Bell|url=http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/publicspecies.pl?taxon_id=9736|publisher=Australian Government Department of the Environment and Energy|accessdate=12 September 2016}} 7. ^{{cite book|last1=Francis|first1=Jeremy|title=Cloudehill: A year in the garden|date=2010|publisher=Images Publishing Group|location=Mulgrave, Vic.|isbn=9781864703771|pages=45–46}} 6 : Darwinia (plant)|Endemic flora of Western Australia|Endangered flora of Australia|Myrtales of Australia|Rosids of Western Australia|Plants described in 1923 |
