Spyridium villosum is a low, hairy shrub from south-west Western Australia, found in sandy soils over sandstone in the Stirling Range. It is a wild native rather than a commonly grown garden plant, so care advice is drawn from general knowledge of the genus.
Spyridium villosum is a species of flowering plant in the family Rhamnaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is a small shrub with shaggy-hairy branchlets, linear to oblong leaves and dense heads of hairy flowers with broad brown bracts at the base.
Spyridium villosum grows in sand over sandstone, in the eastern part of the Stirling Range, with one collection from near Ongerup.
