Rhytidosporum procumbens
1862Summary
Rhytidosporum procumbens, commonly referred to as White Marianth, is a member of the family Pittosporaceae. The dwarf, perennial shrub is characterised by single or small groups of 2-3 white flowers measuring 15mm in diameter which are present in the upper leaf axils during August-December. The 5-20mm leaves are narrow in shape with pointed or 3-toothed tips and margins curved under. R. procumbens is an Australian native and endemic that is locally common within its preferred growing conditions but has an otherwise limited distribution. Thus, it is generally restricted to New South Wales, Victoria, and Tasmania. In 1836, the species was first formally described by William Jackson Hooker, an English botanist. The species was then later transferred from its original genus, Pittosporum, into Rhytidosporum, which was first described in 1862 by Ferdinand von Mueller, a Victorian Government Botanist....read more on Wikipedia.
