About

Mirbelia taxifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to inland Western Australia. It is a shrub that typically grows to a height of 60–90 cm (24–35 in) and has orange-yellow flowers in September. It grows in sandy soil in the Coolgardie bioregion of inland Western Australia.

The species was first formally described in 1943 by Charles Gardner in the Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia from specimens he collected near Coolgardie. The specific epithet (taxifolia) means "yew tree-leaved".
