Micromyrtus fimbrisepala is a small desert shrub from inland Australia, growing up to about 0.7 m, with tiny overlapping leaves and small pink flowers. It is a wild species of arid sand dunes, not a common garden plant, so cultivation advice is limited.

This species grows in on sand dunes in the Gibson Desert in Western Australia, and in the far west of South Australia.
