Hibbertia bracteata (Blue Moutains Guinea Flower)

Hibbertia bracteata is an erect, openly-branched shrub with glabrous branches that typically grows to a height of up to 100 cm (39 in). The leaves are lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, to oblong, 10–30 mm (0.39–1.18 in) long and 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) wide with a small point on the end. The flowers are arranged in leaf axils or on the ends of branchlets and are sessile. Each flower sits on a ring of brown bracts. The sepals are 12–15 mm (0.47–0.59 in) long and densely silky-hairy, the petals yellow and about 10 mm (0.39 in) long. There are about sixteen stamens arranged on one side of the two silky-hairy carpels. Flowering occurs from late winter to summer.
