Orites myrtoidea, the radal enano, is a shrub species in the family Proteaceae. It is a rare plant which occurs in lava fields in the Andes in Chile. The species may grow up to 2 metres (6.6 ft) high, but more often is in the range of 0.5 to 1 metre (1.6 to 3.3 ft). The leaves are about 3 cm (1.2 in) long and 1 cm (0.4 in) wide.
