Astartea is a genus of flowering plants in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. The genus is endemic to southwestern Western Australia. The genus name was inspired by Astarte, the Greek name for the goddess Ishtar.
Astartea are not difficult to grow, and even have the potential to become weedy upon escape from cultivation. Cultivars developed for ornamental use include Astartea 'Winter Pink'.
These plants are mostly found in damp areas, such as puddly rock outcroppings and the margins of waterways. Some grow in swamps and on floodplains.
