Darwinia divisa is a slender, erect shrub in the myrtle family, endemic to a small area of south-west Western Australia and presumed extinct in the wild. It is not realistically available to home gardeners, so there is no practical cultivation guidance beyond general Darwinia care.
Darwinia divisa is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae and is endemic to a restricted part of the south-west of Western Australia. It is a slender, erect shrub with white flowers and is the only species of its genus with "divided prominent calyx lobes" and a hairy calyx tube.
It was first formally described in 2002 by Greg Keighery and Neville Marchant in the Nordic Journal of Botany from specimens collected by Fred Lullfitz near Bendering in 1965.
