Argophyllum lejourdanii is a shrub from the Argophyll family, native only to a small part of north eastern Queensland, Australia. It is an uncommon wild species with little horticultural history, so care guidance is mostly general.
Argophyllum lejourdanii is a plant in the Argophyllaceae family endemic to a part of north eastern Queensland, Australia. It was described and named in 1863.
