Mirbelia subcordata

Mirbelia subcordata is an erect, spreading shrub that typically grows to a height of 20–40 cm (7.9–15.7 in) and has many branches. Its leaves are arranged in whorls of three, egg-shaped to lance-shaped, sharply pointed and usually less than 12 mm (0.47 in) long. The flowers are arranged in clusters at the ends of branches or in upper leaf axils, the sepals 5–6 mm (0.20–0.24 in) long. The petals are yellow or orange and red, the standard petal longer than the sepals, the wings and the keel almost as long as the standard. Flowering occurs from September to December and the fruit is a shaggy-hairy, oblong pod.

This mirbelia grows on a range of soils on slopes, rises and flats in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains and Jarrah Forest bioregions of Western Australia.
