Dampiera alata Dampiera alata close

This was one of the few Dampiera species which could be readily identified at first glance because of the obvious winged stems. The flowers vary a little from species to species but it is the stem leaves and calyx which often show the differentiating features.

Dampiera alata is common in the far south western corner of Western Australia and extends its range to about 200 km north of Perth
