About

Goodenia macmillanii, commonly known as pinnate goodenia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Goodeniaceae and is endemic to Victoria, Australia. It is an erect, short-lived perennial shrub with lyrate or lobed leaves, egg-shaped to elliptic in outline with toothed edges, and leafy racemes of bluish-purple flowers.

It can withstand light to moderate frosts and prefers a sandy loam although it may be grown in rocky or clay-based soils. It may also be grown as a container plant in standard potting mix. Plants may be propagated by division.
