Pultenaea paleacea
Pultenaea paleacea, commonly known as chaffy bush-pea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a prostrate to spreading shrub with linear to lance-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, and yellow to orange and red to purple flowers. Description
Pultenaea paleacea is a prostrate to spreading shrub with stems that have soft hairs pressed against the surface. The leaves are arranged alternately, linear to lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base,  long and  wide, with stipules  long at the base. The edges of the leaves are mostly rolled under and the lower surface is paler than the upper surface. The flowers are arranged in dense clusters on the ends of branches and are  long and sessile with two- or three-lobed, egg-shaped bracts  long at the base. The sepals are  long and densely hairy with oblong bracteoles  long attached near the base of the sepal tube. The standard petal and wings are yellow to orange with red markings and the keel is red to purple. The fruit is a hairy pod. Taxonomy
