Verticordia × eurardyensis, known as Eurardy magenta, is a small shrub from Western Australia, thought to be a stable hybrid of V. dichroma and V. spicata. It is grown mainly as a rare specialist plant in Australian botanic gardens, so care details are limited.
Verticordia × eurardyensis, commonly known as Eurardy magenta, is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to a small area in the south-west of Western Australia. It is a shrub similar to both Verticordia dichroma and Verticordia spicata which grow in the same area and is thought to be a stable hybrid between those two species. It has mostly egg-shaped leaves and spike-like groups of dark magenta-coloured flowers which fade to straw-coloured, in late spring and early summer.
Only a few specimens of Verticordia × eurardyensis have been propagated and only in Kings Park Botanic Garden.
This verticordia grows in sand in low heath and shrubland. It only occurs in Eurardy Reserve, a former pastoral station north of Kalbarri National Park in the Geraldton Sandplains biogeographic region.
