Medicosma glandulosa is a shrub or small understorey tree from the mountain rainforests of far north Queensland, Australia. It is rarely grown in gardens, and its care needs are based on its wet tropical rainforest origin.
Medicosma glandulosa is a species of shrub or small tree in the family Rutaceae and is endemic to far north Queensland. It has elliptical to egg-shaped leaves and flowers that are white with red tips or cream-coloured, borne singly or in small groups in leaf axils.
This medicosma grows as an understorey tree in mountain rainforest at altitudes between 1,000 and 1,200 m (3,300 and 3,900 ft). It occurs from Mount Finnigan in the Cedar Bay National Park to near Mount Lewis in far north Queensland.
