Dampiera linearis, commonly known as common dampiera[2] or wedge-leaved dampiera,[1] is an erect perennial herb in the family Goodeniaceae.[2] The species, which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia, grows to between 15 and 60 cm (6 in–2 ft) high, with its blue to purple flowers appearing between July and December. It adapts readily to cultivation, particularly containers such as hanging baskets.
