Boronia megastigma, or yellow Boronia,
Boronia Megastigma Lutea (Common Name – Yellow Boronia)
Boronia
megastigma, or yellow Boronia, is a species of shrub in the citrus
family known by the common name brown boronia. This is one of several
species of Boronia cultivated for its intense, attractive scent. It is
the main Boronia source of essential
oils, while its relative Boronia heterophylla is more often harvested
for use as an aromatic cut ornamental. B. megastigma is a small shrub
approaching a meter in maximum height. The narrow, thick, linear leaves
are arranged in whorls about the thin stem branches. wiki

Now this is a new plant for me! Tom The Backroads Traveller
What pretty flowers.
Very nice photo!
I think that these ones are not as fragrant as the commoner brown-coloured boronia, Ann.
Thank you for participating in Floral Friday Fotos, I look forward to your contribution again this week.
