Hibbertia cistiflora
Hibbertia cistiflora is a small, erect to low-lying Australian shrub with wiry branches and yellow flowers, native to heath in south-eastern Australia. It suits sunny, well-drained sites in cool to mild climates.
Hibbertia cistiflora is a species of flowering plant in the family Dilleniaceae and is endemic to south-eastern continental Australia. It is a small, erect to low-lying shrub with linear to lance-shaped leaves and yellow flowers usually with four or six stamens arranged in a single cluster.
Subspecies cistiflora is widespread in the Sydney district and the Blue Mountains where it grows in heath, but has been recorded as far north as Werrikimbe National Park and from Braidwood to Nerriga in the south of New South Wales. Subspecies rostrata grows in heath on or near the tops of ridges in the Grampians of Victoria. Subspecies quadristaminea is found in low heath on the Central Tablelands of New South Wales.
