Dillwynia retorta, commonly known as eggs and bacon,[3] is a species of flowering plant shrub in the family Fabaceae and grows in New South Wales and Queensland.
The leaves are narrowly oblong to linear, about 4–12 mm (0.16–0.47 in) long, spirally twisted, needle-like, smooth or minutely warty, tapering at the apex and sometimes curved.
The larger, broader, yellow petal at the back of the flower is 5–12 mm (0.20–0.47 in) long, the centre a reddish colour.
[3][4] This species was first formally described as Pultenea retorta in 1799 by Johann Christoph Wendland and the description was published in Hortus Herrenhusanus.
[7][8] Dillwynia retorta grows in heath and forest from south-east Queensland to the Budawang Range in southern New South Wales.
