Leucopogon apiculatus is an erect, openly branched shrub from the south coast of Western Australia, grown mainly as a garden or native plant rather than a houseplant. It thrives in sandy or well-drained soils in full sun and needs little water once established.
Leucopogon apiculatus is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is an erect shrub with oblong to elliptic leaves and pink to white tube-shaped flowers.
This leucopogon grows in sandy or stony soils on granite outcrops, hills and rocky slopes in near-coastal areas of southern Western Australia, from Cape Le Grand National Park in the west to Cape Arid National Park in the east, including on the islands of the Recherche Archipelago, in the Esperance Plains and Mallee bioregions of southern Western Australia.
