The shrub typically grows to a height of 0.3 to 1.0 metre (1.0 to 3.3 ft). It usually blooms between August and November producing white star-shaped flowers.[1]
Found on granite or sandstone breakaways, rocky rises in the central Mid West region of Western Australia where it grows on sandy clay soils.
