Leucopogon multiflorus is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae and is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. It is a rigid shrub with crowded, sharply-pointed, linear to lance-shaped leaves, and white, tube-shaped flowers usually in groups in leaf axils.
Leucopogon multiflorus is a stout, rigid shrub with sotly-hairy branches. Its leaves are crowded, linear to lance-shaped, concave, about 12 mm (0.47 in) long and sharply-pointed. The flowers are arranged in leaf axils in groups of 3, 4 or more on a short peduncle with bracts and bracteoles less than half as long as the sepals. The sepals are about 2 mm (0.079 in) long and narrow, the petals white and about 4 mm (0.16 in) long, forming a tube with lobes about as long as the petal tube.[2][3]
Leucopogon multiflorus was first formally described in 1810 by Robert Brown in his Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen.[4][5] The specific epithet (multiflorus) means "many-flowered".[6]
This leucopogon occurs in the Esperance Plains bioregion of south-western Western Australia.[3]
Leucopogon multiflorus is listed as "Priority One" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions,[3] meaning that it is known from only one or a few locations which are potentially at risk.[7]
