Mitrasacme polymorpha

Family: Loganiaceae

Mitrasacme polymorpha is a slender sprawling plant 15-30 cm found growing in leaf litter in heath and dry forests on sandstone.

Tiny hairy leaves 4-10mm long are hidden among the tangle of fine stems, on which several delicate white flowers grow.

Poly-morpha means many forms - the stems and leaves are sometimes hairy and the leaf shape is variable.

Mitrasacme polymorpha flowers from September to February.
