Scaevola striata

Scaevola striata, commonly known as royal robe,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the family Goodeniaceae.

The mostly single, fan-shaped flowers are on an axillary stalk, bracts small, lance or oval to oblong shaped, petals about 3 cm (1.2 in) wide with reddish parallel striations and short whitish hairs.

Flowering occurs from August to January and the fruit is an oblong or oval shaped drupe to 5 mm (0.20 in) long.

[3][4][5] Scaevola striata was first formally described 1810 by Robert Brown and the description was published in Prodromus florae Novae Hollandiae et insulae Van-Diemen, exhibens characteres plantarum quas annis 1802-1805.

[8] Royal robe grows on sand plains and ridges in wet areas on the south coast of Western Australia.
