Eremophila abietina, also known as spotted poverty bush,[2] is a plant in the figwort family, Scrophulariaceae and is endemic to a few arid areas of Western Australia.

It is a stiff, upright, compact and very sticky shrub with distinctive, dark bluish-green leaves and pale coloured flowers spotted purple.

Eremophila abietina is a stiff, woody, compact and very sticky shrub which usually grows to a height of 0.5–2.5 m (2–8 ft) and often a similar width.

[3] In 2007 Robert Chinnock described two subspecies and the names have been accepted by the Australian Plant Census:[3] Spotted poverty bush occurs on gibber plains, calcareous flats and jasper outcrops in an area of the Great Victoria Desert near Laverton.

[5][7][11] Some native bee species collect wax from E. abietina flower buds and other parts in order to make propolis, causing damage to the plant and sometimes leading to a stunting of its growth.
