Sprengelia montana is a species of flowering plant of the family Ericaceae, and is endemic to Tasmania. It is a small, erect shrub with overlapping, stem-clasping, egg-shaped leaves, and pink flowers, sometimes in groups of up to 10 on the ends of branches.
This sprengelia is moderately common in alpine and subalpine areas of Tasmania, including on Ben Lomond, the Central Highlands and the Southern Ranges, where it grows in moist areas, often with or near cushion plants.
