About

Boronia rhomboidea, commonly known as the broad-leaved boronia or rhomboid boronia, is a plant in the citrus family Rutaceae and has a disjunct distribution in New South Wales and Tasmania in Australia. It is an erect, woody shrub with many branches, simple, broadly egg-shaped to almost circular leaves and groups of up to three white to pale pink, four-petalled flowers on the ends of the branches or in the axils of the upper leaves.

Where it grows

The broad-leaved boronia grows in swampy heaths in New South Wales and Tasmania. It is found in the Tasmanian highlands and in New South Wales on the Southern Tablelands, mainly in the Budawang Range.
