Pomaderris brevifolia is a slender native shrub of southern Western Australia, growing up to about 1.5 m with small cream to pale pink flower clusters. It is a wild species of mallee scrub and heath rather than a common garden plant, so it is best grown in a sheltered spot with free-draining soil.
Pomaderris brevifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Rhamnaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is a slender shrub with silky-hairy young branchlets, wedge-shaped, heart-shaped or egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, and clusters of ten to twenty cream-coloured to pale pink flowers.
This pomaderris grows in mallee scrub and heath, often between rocks, usually in sheltered places, mainly from near Bluff Knoll to Israelite Bay in the Esperance Plains and Mallee biogeographic regions in the south of Western Australia.
