Description: Native, warm-season, perennial, short, erect herb. Leaves are bluntly toothed, elongate, triangular, 1-6 cm long and held horizontally to erect. Flowers are violet with varying amounts of white and yellow towards the centre. Flowering is in spring and summer. Found in usually moister areas of grasslands, woodlands and forests. Native biodiversity. Of little importance to livestock grazing as it occurs at very low densities in pastures and is low growing. Most common in lightly grazed native pastures or where highly competitive introduced grasses are absent (e.g. Carpet Grass pastures). Leaves are erect in ungrazed to lightly grazed pastures, but become prostrate when pastures are more closely grazed. Date: 7 July 2009, 13:59. Source:
