Agonis theiformis is a spindly, often open shrub from southwest Western Australia, grown for its small white flowers and narrow, wavy leaves. It suits a sunny, well-drained spot and is tolerant of dry, poor soils once established.
Agonis theiformis is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. It is a shrub with elliptic to egg-shaped, sometimes broadly egg-shaped leaves, and clusters of white flowers with mostly 15 to 20 stamens opposite the sepals, the fruit a spherical cluster of cup-shaped capsules.
This species of Agonis grows in heath, shrubland and forest on a range of soil types from Northcliffe to Cape Riche and inland to the Stirling Range in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest and Warren bioregions of southern Western Australia.
