Coleus cremnus, synonym Plectranthus cremnus, is a rare herb only found in a few sites in the north coast of New South Wales. It occurs in shallow sandy soils in rocky coastal headlands, although in recent years, its habitat is under threat from the invasive species bitou bush. Visually, C. cremnus can be easily confused with its relatives Coleus graveolens and Coleus australis.
C. cremnus is a rare herb, found only in the northern coastal portion of New South Wales. It has been found in communities such as Evans Head, Lennox Head, South Solitary Island, and Sawtell. C. cremnus prefers to grow in shallow, sandy soil, and it has been found in sand dunes.
