Pultenaea tenella
Pultenaea tenella, commonly known as delicate bush-pea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the high country near the border between New South Wales and Victoria in south-eastern continental Australia. It is a small, prostrate, mat-forming shrub with elliptic to linear leaves and yellow to orange and red, pea-like flowers.
This pultenaea grows in swamps and moist herbfields in the ranges of north-eastern Victoria, and there is a single record from Mount Kosciuszko in New South Wales.
