Azorella lanceolate t 99, from Labillardiere, 1805[3] (artist: Poiteau)

Platysace lanceolata, commonly known as shrubby platysace, is a shrub species that is native to south-eastern Australia. It grows to 1.5 metres high and has leaves that are 10 to 50 mm long and 4 to 5 mm wide. Plants produce umbels of small white 5-petalled flowers between December and February in the species native range.[4]

The species was first formally described by French naturalist Jacques Labillardière in 1805 in the first volume of Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen and given the name Azorella lanceolata.[1][3] The species was transferred to the genus Platysace in 1917 by English botanist George Claridge Druce.[1]
