About

Argophyllum nullumense, the silver leaf, is a shrub or small tree found in eastern Australia. It is a rare plant with a Rare or Threatened Australian Plants (ROTAP) rating of 3RCa

The generic name comes from the Greek, meaning "bright leaf", referring to the silvery white under-side of the leaves. The original specimen was collected from Mount Nullum, near Murwillumbah.
