Hakea falcata, commonly known as sickle hakea, is a shrub in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to southern Western Australia. It has narrow egg-shaped leaves, cream flowers and blooms in spring.
It is endemic to an area along the coast in the South West and Great Southern regions of Western Australia between around Busselton and Albany and with a small population isolated in the Stirling Range around Cranbrook. It is found in winter wet depressions and other damp areas growing in peaty-sandy or sandy-clay soils. The shrub is often part of the understorey in jarrah forest or open Eucalypt woodland communities.
