| Boronia
is one of the more diverse genera in the native Australian
flora. Until recently, there were 11 species in
Tasmania. In 2020, B. anemonifolia and B.
nana were moved to the closely related Cyanothamnus
genus. These all occur in heathy vegetation, but range from
alpine areas (e.g. B. citriodora and B.
rhomboidea) to dry heaths (e.g. B. pilosa). The
leaves are opposite, aromatic and often pinnate. The flowers
have four, free petals that are white or pinkish. |
