Description
Gompholobium inconspicuum is a prostrate or low-lying shrub that typically grows to a height of up to 20 cm (7.9 in) with young stems that are glabrous or sparsely hairy. The leaves are trifoliate with linear leaflets, 3–10 mm (0.12–0.39 in) long, about 1 mm (0.039 in) wide with the edges curved downwards and minute stipules at the base. The flowers are arranged singly or in groups of up to three on the ends of branchlets, each flower 7–12 mm (0.28–0.47 in) long on a pedicel about 15 mm (0.59 in) long. The sepals are 5–6 mm (0.20–0.24 in) long and the petals are pale lemon yellow to yellowish green, the standard petal 7.6–8.6 mm (0.30–0.34 in) long. Flowering mainly occurs between from August to September, and the fruit is an oval pod 8–11 mm (0.31–0.43 in) long.
