Baeckea brevifolia

Baeckea brevifolia is a common heathland shrub found in coastal central New South Wales, Australia. It grows up to one metre high. The habitat is mostly on poor sandstone soils, in areas of moderate to high rainfall, frequented by fire. It is often found growing by the sea. The specific epithet "brevifolia" is from the Latin, meaning "short-leaved".
It was first described as "Leptospermum brevifolium" in 1807 by Edward Rudge, but was transferred to the genus, "Baeckea", by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle in 1828.
