Persoonia confertiflora, commonly known as Cluster-flower Geebung, is a shrub species which is native to eastern Australia.[2] It can reach up to 1.5 metres in height and has lanceolate or elliptic leaves. The yellow flowers have four curved petals. These are followed by fleshy green fruits that later turn purple. These are about 18mm long and 14 mm wide.[2]
The species was first formally described by botanist George Bentham in 1870 in the fifth volume of Flora Australis. It occurs in south-eastern New South Wales and eastern Victoria in woodland and forests of coastal and mountainous areas.[3][2]
