Pimelea argentea, commonly known as silvery leaved pimelea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Thymelaeaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is an erect shrub with densely hairy young stems and leaves, the leaves linear to elliptic, and heads of white to yellow or greenish flowers, the male and female flowers on separate plants.
Silvery leaved pimelea mostly grows in sand and is found on coastal dunes and in rocky granite areas from the Murchison River to Israelite Bay and inland as far as Hyden.
