Micromyrtus blakelyi is a small, cushion-like Australian shrub from a restricted area near Sydney, known for tiny pink flowers. It is a rare native rarely grown in gardens, so care notes are general and best matched to its sandstone-habitat origins.
Micromyrtus blakelyi is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to a small area near Sydney Australia. It is a low, cushion-like shrub with overlapping, keeled, linear leaves and small pink flowers arranged singly in upper leaf axils.
This species grows in shallow depression in sandstone rocks in shrubby woodland near the Hawkesbury River, from Maroota to Cowan, north of Sydney.
